If OP is young, like in their early 20s, then this is the time to focus on career. They have lots of energy and their age won't be held against them as a junior. Most of their social peers will be moving around constantly and uninterested in settling down. All of OP's softball pals or whatever will move away or start families and fall out of touch no matter what OP does. Much better to enter your 30s with a rock solid career than with a weak career and friends you never see.
