My life could depend on your response!?

This is a question I have had for some time. I am origionally from Atlanta, GA. I moved to Vienna, Austria three years ago. I love the culture and how one can travel easily to other countries from there. I also have my dad and step-mom there. I am finding it hard to get further with a job because my German is simply not perfect. Even after numerous German courses and lots of money spent. It is also really hard for me to make friends here. They are not so friendly and welcoming like in the states. Also finding a decent guy is ridicoulous. A lot of the men are machos and it is fairly normal for a guy to be married and have girlfriends on the side. Or have numerous girlfriends. They expect the woman to work and equally pay plus do the house work and cooking. I miss having friends and after 3 years here I would like to have a serious relationship. I am 23. With the economy in America it also makes me nervous. The economy here doesn’t really seem to have been effected like in many places around the world. What would you suggest?

One fear I have is that I only have a highschool degree. In Austria I am working at Mc Cafe; a new concept from McDonald’s in competion with Starbucks and other similar coffee places. There I earn 1000 Euros (after taxes) a month. Plus I have a pension plan, 401K, 6 weeks paid vacation per year, and a health plan.
the reason I could get a Visa is because my step-mom is Austrian. Getting a Visa to live in Europe isn’t that easy. America isn’t part of the EU.
