Kind of sucks you're on Balmung.  I'm about to get my PC put together (old motherboard is dying, so I needed to do a core upgrade about a month earlier than anticipated) so I'll be back on.  I was playing every day until my computer suffered a mental breakdown.  I think it'd still play it technically, but due to my issues, I can't get the launcher to launch.  It's a long and complicated story.
Best advice that I can give is the simplest, do what's fun.  Don't make the game a job.  Don't make it a social media site.  Remember what it is at its core; it's a video game.  If you're not having fun doing something, flip it.  Try a class you didn't do before.  Run around doing only FATEs for a while.  Try a profession you didn't do before.  Randomly scrounge up some RP in a bar.  Hell, do something IRL for a night (some people do it).

Just, whatever you do, don't do something that you aren't enjoying.  FFXIV, unlike a lot of MMOs, gives a sort of equal measure to things that aren't your average kill-questing.  Not only is there a lot to do in the game, but all of it can be treated just as importantly.  I think that's unique to MMORPGs (at least any I've played).

In any case, get in touch with me if you're on Gilgamesh.  Good life choices and sheer blazing luck, as well as a lifetime spent online listening to people complain about their problems, has given me a bulletproof ego and put me in a pretty good universal mood (especially for someone whose favorite music genres are metal and goth).  I'm pretty much impossible to piss off and like listening to people talk about things I don't know anything about.
