Can't decide what profession....
For advice on what the (intended) strengths of each profession are, see the following developer post:

For race/gender, just go with the combination that is most visually appealing to you. You will be looking at it a lot. Also count in the player character voice, as it can play randomly whenever you gain a boon, a condition or use some class-specific skills (because if you find your own character’s voice annoying, you probably made a wrong choice). Finally, choose the race that has story options that seem interesting to you.
Other than this, it is not really important. If you can’t choose, just go randomly for any of the five races and two genders.
What weapon sets to use is NOT something others should tell you. Some weapons have very situational skills for some classes (like the focus for elementalists) that may be very useful in specific situations, but mostly worthless otherwise. Experiment with ALL weapons for your profession, and decide to play with what you like best. Make sure to revisit every other weapon every 10 levels or so, because the quality of the skills may have shifted in the meantime.
If you REALLY INSIST on having others tell you what to play, then why do you even want to play at all?
Well i want to play due to the fact that i like the game? I just can’t find a profession to stick to, but good to know someone wants me to quit from asking a question. Like i stated, i can’t stick to one profession, i tend to wander off and play another deleting the previous one sometimes, that’s why i’m asking if someone can just set a Race + Profession combo for me so i can force myself stick with, and not wander off to another profession again :/

I’m not telling you to quit the game, but to focus on what YOU like. Having someone else tell you how to have fun is a surefire way to NOT have fun.
Since you have apparently tried out all 5 races and all 8 professions already, you surely already have an opinion on each of them. It would be helpful if you included those opinions in your question. Because your original question contains absolutely no information on what you are actually looking for in the game, and what kind of challenges you like.
The differences between the 8 professions are based on that: some are very straightforward and relatively easy (like Warrior), some are quite complex, easy to learn to play decently, but hard to master (like Elementalist), while others are more about timing and speed than about complexity (like Thief). That is why I recommend you read the post I linked, because if any of the descriptions by Jonathan Sharp appeals to you, that may be a sign that you should try to stick with that Profession.
By the way, if you want to try out a profession, you are better served to stick with it until level 30, because then you unlock the elite skill slot, which is the last new feature you receive for your character. (Not counting trait points, which you continue to receive until level 80.) Before level 30, you will not have a complete impression of a profession, although you will already a halfway decent idea of its playstyle.
