The Lure of the Siren

[Denver_2010]

When the tough love technique does draw them back, is it because they really want back in on their own accord?

My guess is no, it's more likely they came back because you cornered them, out played them in the chess game, so to speak.

Is this the best way to build a truly loving and lasting relationship?

After the Last Chance Technique indeed.

It takes a mixture of both FY. The bottom line is, how do you balance it? That is the tough part.
