Looking for a class to main and to play only. Iam sick of my altoholism.
Stuck between theese two.
Help me settle.
Mainly i want to dps.
If you want to DPS, I think DK is better, at least in S4. Monk has the advantage that you can also heal or tank (and do both better than a DK). But from a DPS point of view, DK pulls higher numbers.
I only care about the playstyle, the fun, the feels, not really the meters.
I love playing m+ and almost every class feels great in some situations in m+
But in raid i usually get bored, or getting feel uncomfortable with some classes.
If feels is what you go for, go monk. 
Pure feel monk all day.
DK is great for feeling like a colossus and just causing pure devastation but monks mobility and general feel is miles better imo.
I prefer BDK to BrewM but WW slaps UH/Frost for me personally, Mistweaver is also a very fun healing spec from what I have played.
Only reason for BDK over BrM for me is the self sustain. But I got over it quick, chucking a keg at someone’s face is surprisingly addictive 
Asking strangers to tell you what to main, is not going to make you stick with a class or stop being an altoholic. Being a past altoholic I can tell you that
You need to change your mindset to change that.
Realise that there is no “perfect” class, and you don’t HAVE to have “one fits all” class. It is okay to have multiple classes you play since they each bring their own unique fun. Often Altoholics are also players who simply like playing different playstyles, but punish themselves if they do so because “we HAVE to have ONE main”… that was sarcasm btw Just pick 2-4 classes you keep switching between since they clearly are your favorites.

WW is rly good for dungeons, but giga bad for raid. DK is fine both
Interesting question… the class fantasy is nearly direct opposite, with monks being all about life energy (chi), as opposed to DK’s… well, death.
Monk is a pinball. DK is a turtle - but it can leash the hare. Monk can die 1v1. DK probably not so much. Monk can heal, DK cannot.
Personally I found DK aggravatingly slow and thematically unloveable. Monk has been my main since WoD and I never doubt that choice. I love the movement, I love the visuals, and I feel competent in all three roles, allowing me to offer more utility to my guild and community. Maybe none of monks’ specs are FOTM, but they’re all viable, and if you enjoy the bouncy style, it’s a solid pick.
I may be biased

Thanks for your post. I track this thread 'cuz have same problem. I am also altoholic, and were wondering about class which can fit all three roles, in PvE and PvP.
Due to complexity, shifts, and boring tank spec I rejected Druid, and boosted Pally never really consider to do a Monk. However Ret seems so cluncky, and hPal I just don’t feel. But I read a lot of positive comments about Monk, which seems perfect match for someone who like me loves very mobile classes like warrior.
If mobility is your joy, then monk definitely has it.
We are not FOTM tanks, and arguably in a poor spot since some recent nerfs. Our dps spec got a 5% buff just a couple of weeks ago, and Mistweaver… I think is about to become amazing. The changes to Rising Mist have brought Fistweaving back in a major way, and given a few weeks to let the player base work out how to take advantage of it, we’re going to absolutely shine as raid healers.
