Oh fuck... don't EVER make your first character a priest...
I can't stand low level priest (or much of anything low level really, but i realize you have to start simple)... and mages, warriors, and rogues are really not solo-friendly (because they lack a healing capacity). Hunters and warlocks are pet classes, so missing a healing tree isn't so bad for them.
By far the best things to start with are the hybrids (druid, shaman, and paladin)... because you can heal yourself without being so gimp at everything else in the low levels (See priest?). And paladins 'never' die... so if you hate dying while picking up the game...
/end nerdspeak...
Blizzard made leveling newbies much safer, easier, and solo-friendly in patch 3.3, so perhaps you might like the game if you were to try it now. I managed to endure getting a priest to level 10, so now i can level her as a healer in the Battlegrounds 
(though it is bloody slow... they need to improve BG experience gain now that they have added it to the game). Also, the looking for group system available at level 15 is when the game really picks up You can start doing random dungeons with 4 other people at that time

Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day
