Search Results: high standards

I have been feeling incredibly heartbroken, inept, and lonely for a very long time.

My background:
I am 27 years old, turning 28 later this year. I hardly have any friends, and I have never had a real girlfriend, especially nothing long-term or serious. I have had sex only one time 7 years ago during a weekend fling, but nothing progressed from that. I haven't touched a girl since.

I am a software developer, and I make a very comfortable, decent income. I have my own apartment in the city, and I own 2 cars and a very large RV. Career-wise and financially, I am doing well right now.

Sadly, women hardly ever notice me. I am suspecting my short height of 5 feet 6 inches is the culprit. I am average in looks at best.

I can understand me being in this situation if I was asexual or aromatic, but I am the exact opposite! I have always wanted a girlfriend, wife, and kids of my own.

Yes, I have high standards, but with that aside, I haven't managed to attract ANY woman.

I feel extremely depressed, especially seeing most of those I have known growing up getting married, having kids, and/or both. The l cast majority of my peers I have known are married, yet I haven't had my first real girlfriend. I feel inadequate and almost subhuman.

Lotus Statement: The all-new and all-electric Lotus Eletre is a striking and progressive Hyper SUV. It takes the core principles and Lotus DNA from more than 70 years of sports car design and engineering, evolving them into a desirable all-new lifestyle car. Eletre has an elegant and exotic look with active aerodynamics and a dramatic porous design. The use of pioneering sustainable materials gives a new level of premium for every journey.

A true Lotus experience: Optimal structural rigidity and active dynamics, combined with a perfect blend of high power and torque, provide the kind of performance that is expected from a Lotus. With powerful electric motors and a low centre of gravity, this new icon makes ordinary driving, extra.

Cutting - Edge Intelligence: The world’s first deployable LiDAR system and advanced autonomous driving capabilities make this the most technically advanced Lotus, ever. Eletre is the first global SUV with 800V architecture, providing exceptional range and charging options, meaning less time plugged in and more time driving. The deployable sensors are hidden when not required, ensuring the car’s striking design shines through and only emerging from the top of the windscreen, the top of the rear glass, and from the front wheel arches as required.

Add in a dynamic walk-up sequence, advanced interface and heads-up display, Eletre makes the everyday special. The dashboard doesn’t have a traditional instrument panel, instead, the area in front of the driver is a thin strip that’s less than 1.18 inches tall. For the passenger side, the same matching piece shows info like the music selection or nearby points of interest. The centre console is a 15.1-inch landscape-oriented screen and a head-up display as standard.

The top speed is 161 mph (260 km/h) with 600hp. However, it is rumored a later model will be released pumping out 900hp.
