But It's simply just not an option for me at this time. So I decided to try some MMO's since I can generally play for 5 minutes at a time, and drop whatever I was doing, and handle real life things.

So basically due to my situation I ruled out tanking because in my experience people get pissed when I either have to AFK for extended periods, or drop group because my daughter woke up(I only play while she sleeps). So I tend to prefer to solo content as much as I can because I don't want to be a liability to my group.

I think I am leaning towards a black mage at this point. Can you tell me about the summoner class ? At least, I think that's what it's called.
You will probably want to avoid DRG and MNK due to their potential being greatest when they are not in front of a monster. The positioning can be a bit of a nuisance if you do not have a tank with you to keep the monster occupied. You might still consider a tank, even if you don't intend to do dungeons with it, due to their durability which can come in very handy during FATE events (which you will probably be doing a lot of) when you are alone. Warrior has a good mix of damage, durability, and self-healing which makes it a nice melee choice for solo work.
