This question seems simple to answer, I always hear that I should choose the opening that I feel most comfortable with, but I can never decide which is the most comfortable for me, so I always change openings daily.
For white, I really like e4, but I like Ruy Lopez, Italian and Scotch equally.
Black against e4 although I have a better performance of Caro-Kan and French, but I find them both boring, so I like to play e5 and c5. But in both defenses, in most games my opponents don't play the main lines, I always find anti-Sicilian lines and strange lines with e5, like the Ruy Lopez Exchange variation and Vienna game, I feel boring playing these lines.
So, I would like to focus on an opening and a defense, but how do I decide?
