Sorry to hear what all everyone is putting up with. It sure is a tough economy. You have all my sympathy if you're putting up with shit work in order to have any work. The little iiron rice bowl I get for teaching looks pretty good at times like these. When my stepson and all his college buddies were making more than I was while only working part time it didn't seem so good. Now I'll take it.
Perhaps the only thing worse than not being in a relationship is being in a bad one .. and there are so many ways for it to be bad. My advice is find someone who loves what they do and want to spend loads of time doing it (assuming you're that way too). If they travel a good deal that is a bonus because you've got to get some time apart. They've got to be able to surprise you conversationally and in bed.
When it comes to family you have to play the hand you're dealt and there are a lot of jokers in mine. I've got a fundy brother who reads the bible like a lawyer and a depressed brother who became a moron .. I mean mormon. My wife's sisters won't talk to her for shit so weird you wouldn't believe it. Thank god for strangers. You get to pick which ones of them you make friends.
But the real secret to happiness is a good dog. They'll keep you grounded when all else fails.
