LRT is one of the most misunderstood DBing principles. LRT is just that....last resort technique. In Michele's book, it is used when all other methods have been tried and failed.
I am going to use a small part of Michele's words on LRT (for full details, you'd need go look up pages 124-130):
In theory, it's identical to doing a 180, but you put it to use when your situation is extreme.
Peter has tried every approach to get his W to be open to him and get her feet back into the M only to be stonewalled by her with 1,345 excuses along with some spew. He's been at this for months, months, and months...nothing.
LRT coupled with going dark is the only way to convey to her that he's truly moving on with his life. No more talks, no more this-n-that, no more chit chat....just do it.
It seems that you are asking LRT as it applies to your sitch so I'll bring over your questions to your thread.
