I've never had a relationship, never mind a life partner. You are a lucky. I hated every single job I ever had (except two). Work caused me tremendous distress. I have Asperger's, and I suppose, for whatever reason, I never found small talk interesting, and I could never relate to what most could relate to. So, I've never had any of that.

Ireland isn't London, so, no, there are very few options here.
