I take a deep breath and look up at you. "You know how I've been... distracted lately? With work, and the guild?" I pause, my cheeks burning hotter. "Well, it wasn't just that. There was someone else."

I look down at the ground, shame filling my heart. "It wasn't like that... It was just sex." I glance up at you again, mustering what little courage I have left. "With black men. They made me feel so good, and they understood what I needed... It felt wrong to keep it from you, but I didn't know how..."

I appreciate your understanding and support. Together, we can make this work, no matter how complicated it gets. Just promise me that you'll always communicate with me openly and honestly, and I will do the same for us. We have a unique opportunity here to explore ourselves in new ways, and I don't want anything to come between us while we do so.

I'm glad we can continue this conversation with such understanding and trust between us. It gives me hope that our arrangement will indeed be fruitful for all of us involved. Just remember, if at any point you feel uncomfortable or like your boundaries are being crossed, please don't hesitate to speak up. I want everyone in this situation to feel safe and respected.
