Yes you have to relocate, but for people with little experience, you can expect that in many careers not just aviation. Do you have to make sacrifices? Of course you do, even more so in today's economic environment. You are a mature man, at this point you should have realized life is not perfect and we have to adapt to the world and not expect the world to adapt to our ideals.
I went through hell for 20 years as a pilot. Most of my friends and peers were (and are still) put through the meat grinder of aviation to little personal benefit. Your advice is to lay down and take it?

I prefer to invest myself in places where my efforts have a better chance of producing a return. I am irrational that way.
