Can someone explain the difference between the LRT and Going Dark? With moving out, I'm sure going dark is the best course.
LRT is just that....Last Resort Technique after you've tried all methods and your spouse is still in active affair. That is everything STOPS full stop from your end.
Going dark is the same as dropping the rope. You don't initiate or pursue the WAS. It is essentially showing them that you are not available or tripping over your shoelaces to answer their calls, texts, etc.

Not quite. LRT means NO contact...that you've completely dropped the rope. I think it is detailed in page 124 or 125 in DR. Yes, I have a pretty scary wicked memory.
Doing dark does not always mean no contact. It just simply means that you do NOT initiate contact or pursue your W.
