Err, no. What is important in regards to women is, not being attached to the outcome. Because, being attached to the outcome can show implicitly in your behavior, which is a turn off to women. That being because, women are attracted to men who seem to already have a lot of sexual options. So a guy generally needs to convey an image of someone who already lives in abundance.
It however does not mean to simply be passive and to expect girls to make passes at you. Girls almost never approach because first, any girl gets hit on all the time and has many options. And second, it's the guys' task to be the initiator and to be agressive. Generally though, a girl if she likes you, will express it through subtle indicators of interest, which you need to pick up on.
If you don't do anything, you'll stay single. Guys simply cannot get away with this because girls are far, far pickier. Guys need to act when a girl seems to express signs of interest, and to be as assertive as possible in general.

As for myself, my rant is that, well, I'm about to graduate from university in four months, and I don't know how I'm going to sell myself to prospective employers. I'm going into a field where employment prospects are pretty good, but my problem is that I'm 28, and for health reasons, I haven't really held a job up to now.
Sure I had legimitate reasons, but at any rate it's awkward and a tough sell. A 28 years-old man who has no job to show in his resume is going to immediately raise eyebrows. If when questioned I talk about the illness, then I think the employer is just going to think of myself as a liability who could become ill again at any time, even though I've recovered successfully.
I tried to applied for some volunteering in the last 1-2 years, but even they were very picky, asking to see my resume, and told me how odd it was that I hadn't worked for all this time. It seems to just put me in a very awkward situation any way you put it, with hardly any way to save the face and appear normal. I'm beginning to wonder if I shouldn't invent some past jobs I had. Perhaps I could take like 2 of them and say I was hired in shops in my hometown that don't exist anymore then they'd have no way to check whether or not I'm BS'ing.
Also, when I work, I'm going to work freelance for a while. I wanted a desk job, but it looks like it's going to take a while to get one here. Full time jobs in that field would exist in Montreal but I don't know if I'm ready to move out there, and give up on everything I built here over the last few years.
I wanted a desk job because I wanted a job where I'd interact with other people. Now instead I'm going to work from my apartment. In the summer for the college breaks I had to spend a lot of time in my apartment and it drove me nuts. I tried over and over and over again to find social outlets in my city, but I found basically no place where young people could go and socialize together in some sort of activity. I have some friends, sure, but I can't see them all the time. I really hate having an introverted lifestyle and being forced to spend all day in my apartment with barely anywhere to go to would really drive me insane.
