It's a sad state of affairs for low level people atm. The only way any of those "high level" people can help is by power leveling you.
The best they can do w/o playing the game for you is give you advice until you either get close enough in level to start grouping with those higher level people or someone has a similar level job (within 10 levels of you)

Or if SE was to do something like oh..... i dunno... ADD LEVEL SYNC?

where did that post go? maybe it's time to resurrect that one.

FFXIV is my second MMO, how Level Sync work?

Please, no. Not that thread. ; ;

Basically, you'd select one party member, and that would be the "maximum level" for your party. Anyone below that level was unaffected, but anyone higher than that player would become that player's level. Skills and base stats were lowered to match what they would be at that level, and gear was scaled "appropriately" (in quotes because higher-level gear that was scaled down was often useless, just like wearing Optimal Level:49 gear would be on a lower job in XIV). Go find Chief's thread if you want to see everyone's appraisal of the pros/cons, though. I don't want to hijack your thread here.

...It's a good system on paper, but in my experience abuse was just as common as use; also, XIV has other options for leveling besides standard parties--although they're slower, that does something to alleviate the need for Level Sync.

...crap, I said I wouldn't say anything.

The problem is alot of people have all DoW/M level 50 so the only way they can help you is by PLing you, this means they go out of thier way for no gain, nice to see who actually wants to help people rather than get things for themselves.

Currently Yoshi-P is focusing the game around keeping the current playerbase to see it through to 2.0, at 2.0 there will be more low level content when he is expecing alot of people coming.

For you I would say it might be best to keep looking for other linkshells, you will find one that suits you, or you could put your flag up and grind leves till you get a party, or shout in Ul'dah, not many other options for you atm.
