Hmmm, i'm a bit late to the party, but Welcome to the RPC none the less!
Hope you had the chance to have a good weekend, maybe plug away at some levels, or chat with a few people.
The other three have made some suggestions, so I hope you don't mind if I offer up my own.
As a start for the PVE aspect of the game you could take a look at:

A linkshell dedicated to getting people interested in partying together. I'm in "2" myself and its fairly active, no requirement to attend X number of dungeons or anything so I can often keep to my hermity-self, jumping in an ocassional Aurum Vale or something along those lines.

That linkshell "Intermission" should serve to get you in touch with people, again no obligation, just a friendly set of groups who chat, mention where and when they might be and all that. OOC and on its third iteration (some one feel free to correct me if they've made a fourth.)
I hope that helps you (and your partner) get in touch with some interesting people. Always happy to see people of an experienced RP background enter the scene, might I ask where you two may have been in the past? I (aside from MMOs) mostly use Table Top for my roleplaying fix, although I spent quite a bit of time between Gaia and a few other less well known sites in the past for my fix.
Ah well, best of luck in Eorzea to you both, and feel free to flag me down if you see me running about, twelve knows I could probably use a break from harvesting!
