I once asked a Punk rocker why he was beating his head against a wall. His response was: "It feels real good when I stop".
I don't know all your details, but I ask- do you have a job? Of any kind? Some people find the path to happiness lies in being accepted, even respected enough to be given responsibility. Many cults recruit by offering acceptance to the unhappy.
Do you smile? How often? If you find someone who can make you laugh, even with bad jokes, they are making you happier. If you can find someone you can talk to, trust, confide you deepest fears to, and can in turn offer them support when they are down, THEN you will be in a "relationship"
Start with respect for yourself, then expect respect from others. Including boyfriends- or girlfriends (like I said, I don't know you OR your orientation).

I want to find someone who will make me happy too. But it isn't fair to put that on anyone elses shoulders. I think happiness will never come from monitoring your own happiness level. The happiest I have ever been was when I found my passion, flying, and then just being all about that.
Do yourself a favor and search for that thing that captures your imaganation, this is the thing that will bring you true happiness.
