Hey 20 year old, It's best to have a career you are passionate about, but the ideal career is never going to be 100% fun all the time. Even if you love a career, likely 80% of it will be fun, and at least 20% of it is exhausting. That's normal. Work is still work.

Hey 20 year old, If you need it, research online the "green flags" of a relationship rather than just the red flags. Don't just ask, "What is an abusive relationship?" but also, "What is a healthy relationship like?" If you don't know, that might explain a lot.
