First of all nothing to apologize, no one should be forcing anyone to use any OS.
Secondly, you shouldn't start with Arch, it's a very manual process that has several small things that can be done wrong. I recommend you try Mint, Pop or any other beginner friendly distro, you can still tinker and customize them as much as you want, but you will be starting from something that works instead of having to build a working system from the ground up without knowing what that looks like.
Even Endeavor would be better than going straight to Arch.
I second Pop! It's the best UX I've had with Linux so far. System76 really outdid themselves with that distro.
