You share a lot of details about what you don't like and what you wish were better in your post. Perhaps HN can help you in a different way if you write about what you want to do and what you like (careers, cities, dreams and ambitions etc).

I assume you mean that you want to do some things but can not make the money-partner-city-family proximity balance work.
If you share what you really want, even if it is totally impractical, HN might be able to find a way to make things work.
On the other hand, if you don't have some idea for what you'd rather be doing, I recommend seeing a therapist. When the world appears uninteresting in all dimensions, it's a sign to seek help.
Yeah, very good advice. It is very important to know what you are one earth for. This knowledge sometimes disappears, always changes, must continually be updated, etc. But it's key to be able to navigate in the total uncertainty that is life. Seeking help for that is totally normal and useful. You'll get many things from a therapist.
Somehow some people are lucky enough to be at the sweet sport between what they like to do and what they're able (in the sense that they are in a situation where they can express they qualities,...) to do. But for one match there are so many mismatches, just a question of luck.
