Well?
"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."
Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.
When you steam foods, are you taking the nutrients out?

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"
She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

Water soluble vitamins are sometimes vaporized out, especially if u tend to overcook your food. However, steaming is one of the healthiest methods to prepare cooked food.

Sometimes, but not the essiental ones.
Steaming and the Forman grill is the healthiest way to go. Multimineral/vitamin should sort out any losses anyway, if you're taking them.

Steaming is just one step short of boiling, which is the worst (unless you drink the water in which it is boiled, preferably as a soup w/some soup-stock stired in - this btw is how many Asian dishes are made) for nutrient retention. But it's still better than boiling food. The best method is to grill things - even vegetables.

What if you are steaming chicken breasts? I do it because it takes less time to prepare...But the way I do it is put a little water in a saucepan and cover it and let the steam cook it...But if there is a little water left in, do the nutrients get into the water? I was mainly concerned about protien...
"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."
Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

I cant see you steaming the **** out of a chicken breast to the point where it loses much protein. Even if you steamed it until the proverbial cow came home.
And yes, using the 'water' is a great idea. Always do it to make a gravy and such like. Hell, when you boil something, you can make gravy with the water that you boiled it with. Resourcfulness![and bad spelling!] It makes average gravy taste awesome.

Yea the protein wont leave unless you burn the meat, in which all that is left is charcoal, or carbon. Cooking protein denatures it, which messes up the confirmation, but actually increases absorptiveness.Originally posted by DJBen
