SKRYU's latest album, but more specifically this song

I feel like it's pretty normal to get burnt out on anything if it's done too much. Even if it's something you consider your favorite, having too much of something can get repetitive after a while.

It might just be you need to take a break and put your focus on something else for a while?

Ayano's Weight Gain Diary is worth checking out and still ongoing. Unless you're looking for something like weight gain found in a popular series and avoiding doujin stuff?

I would say bring up the fetish again and talk about what interests you about it. Tell her your concerns about how you feel having the fetish will affect your relationship long-term. From there you could ask to figure out an outlet together for the fetish if need be.

Sounds pretty normal to me!

I had a few friends in high school who never dated and stayed that way through college. They did eventually throw themselves out there after graduating. Their reluctance to start a relationship though stemmed from a desire to establish themselves first before bringing someone into their lives.

Whatever you want to do with your love life is more important than what others expect you to do with it. Even if you were in this same boat 10 years from now I feel you would be completely fine. The only reason to worry I feel would be if you set self goals for yourself, such as getting married or having kids at a certain age. But even then you could evaluate what you want for yourself and how to obtain it. At 18 I think you have a lot of time to decide and explore what you want for yourself. I don't feel you are a late bloomer at all at that age.

I would suggest not, mostly due to my own experiences.

I was in a relationship for 5 years once where we had broken up several times due to situations like your own. We kept getting back together unfortunately because we kept chatting with each other (thinking we could still be friends). At the end of it all I found out she was lying about a lot of things and she was trying to move on to other men with the plan of dumping me once she found one. I had wasted 5 years thinking I could make something work and kept making the mistake of going back and chatting with her. All the while ignoring why we broke up in the first place and not considering how it would affect the relationship again down the road.

I also have a friend in a similar boat right now. He kept breaking up with his high school sweetheart, but the second they started chatting, they would go back into a relationship. She "accidentally" got pregnant after their last breakup and now they're raising a kid together while still struggling to deal with their non-working relationship. He talks all the time about how miserable he is in the relationship, but the situation was made complicated by adding a kid.

Good luck with your situation though!

Hahaha honestly I would say try and look up all the rest stops you can find along the way and star them on google maps for later. It's a lot easier to travel knowing when and where your next bathroom break is, or an opportunity to stretch your legs. Some rest stops have free pamphlets about stuff in the area or road maps of California. Same with gas stations, you can calculate your gas mileage ahead of time and estimate when you need to refuel. You can save money seeing which gas stations are cheaper online and aim to stop at those while on the trip!

If you want cheap souviners I recommend bringing quarters and pennies since there should be a bunch of pressed penny machines. Definitely bring a portable phone charger in case of a power outage or something happens where you can't recharge your phone from an outlet. That way you have a backup battery. I'd say consider too how you might bring back other souvenirs you might find? Im always one for grabbing free pamphlets or maps wherever I go, so I bring a folder with me to keep that stuff flat and undamaged haha.

For a San Francisco trip, you might need to decide if you want to follow the 1 along the coast after San Luis Obisbo, or continue on the 101 inland. Depends really how fast you want to get up there haha, I know Monterey on the 1 is worth a visit.

Sorry for the wall of text!

If you took a flight out from LA to Minnesota, and then rented a car from there, there's quite a bit you could do. You could start off exploring the Mall of America and then make your way to South Dakota for all the tourist stops on the 90. The Corn Palace, Al's Oasis, and Wall Drug were some interesting places to check out. If you travel all the way to the end of the state, Mount Rushmore is just Southwest from Rapid City. Food wise I remember Pizza Ranch, Culver's, or even stopping by a Caseys General Store while on the go.

Since you're based in LA I would recommend the Coast Starlight train if you've never taken it before. It heads up to Seattle and the trip is beautiful as it goes along the beach, through cities, mountains, and also forests. Lots of leg room with reclining chairs. The meals were pretty average on the train, pricey burger and pizza options in the Observation car. The train goes to places like Portland Oregon where there's Voodoo Donuts to try out. Most of the areas up north are pretty fat friendly with cooler weather in the summer. If you take any Greyhound buses north from LA, during the off season you can usually get a seat to yourself pass Sacramento/Redding, but it's cramped otherwise and I only recommend it for the daring.

Seattle has a lot going for it even though it's starting to approach the rainy season. Pike Place market has the original Starbucks and lots of great food vendors. There are a lot of delicious Pho places like Than Brothers in the area too. The Space Needle and the Museum of Pop Culture are worth a visit. If you flew from LA to Seatac airport and got a hotel/car there in Tukwila; there's options to drive out to Tacoma to see the glass bridge, Point Defiance, and the Narrows Bridge. The Bavarian village of Leavenworth is a great place to visit in the summer, it's pretty much the Solvang of Washington. Lots of great restaurants there.

Driving the 101 up Cali has a lot of great stops too. Gardens of the World in Thousand Oaks, Harbor Village + Channel Islands visitor center in Ventura, all the shops and restaurants in Solvang. You could take it up to San Francisco, which is getting a bit trashy with all the drug use and homeless, but there's quite a bit there. Pier 39 is a great stop for lunch, along with Twin Peaks overlooking the city, Golden Gate Park and Golden Gate Bridge. If you make it all the way to Oregon on the 101, I recommend checking out Astoria and the nearby cities of Westport & Ocean Shores. Really great seafood restaurants in those areas.

Las Vegas I don't feel is very fat friendly unless you're just planning on staying at one hotel. It's a lot of walking just to look at all of the stuff on the strip, unless you constantly valet your car. Even with a monorail pass, there's just a lot of walking and heat to deal with. Outside of the strip, you mostly have the same restaurants you can find in SoCal. The Hoover Dam is the only thing I can think of in the area monument wise worth a visit. If you want a hell of an adventure driving in the middle of nowhere (except for break stops at Ely, Wells, and Jackpot), drive north on the 93 until you reach the Twin Falls bridge in Idaho.

There's a lot of missing info from your story that makes it hard to offer suggestions. For example, how did you find out about this, what sort of pictures is she sending, who is she chatting with, etc.

You should trust her, talk to her about it, and tell her how you feel about it.

You guys excited for National Train Day next month?
