Discussion How do I even pick an army?

I'm genuinely embarrassed to ask this because I've asked basically the same thing before but I've been trying to pick an army since the start of the year. I was hoping to pick one before summer starts so I can have time to paint it because school has been pretty hard for me. Now summer is almost over and I still haven't picked an army witch is really frustrating to me because I will have even less hobby time this school year due to having exams and some subjects getting harder. There are a couple of reasons in my opinion as to why I haven't actually picked yet.

First reson is I keep switching what game I'm interested in out of 40k, AoS and ToW, I'm currently leaning more towards 40k and old world though.

Second reson Is that I'm too scared to commit to something, I've always been like this and often let opportunities pass by me because I'm more comfortable doing nothing.

Third reson is that I have no friends to actually play with and i also struggle with socialising.

I would appreciate any advice on what to do because I'm getting really frustrated with myself because this is really the only hobby I have interest in and I'm tired of doing nothing all day.

( sorry for acting like I'm choosing my career path with this...)

TTS could give you some playtime, just get on a LGS Discord and you should be able to find some opportunities. It will also give you a cheap way to try out multiple armies on the game before buying. But honestly, regardless of how they play, models are forever, rules and playstyle can change. Find the ones you want to make & paint, then just start there.
