Say you and another person get into an argument. You're noticeably getting the upper hand. The other person, rather than admitting defeat, walks away.

Is that the same as them losing the argument?

(And no, don't come at me with the "well the real winner is the one who walked away from a pointless argument" -- put that aside for the purposes of this topic. Yes, that person may have won at life, but that does not affect whether or not they won/lost the argument)

Maybe, but only if you're the kind of person who sees these conversations in terms of winning and losing, in which case I'd say you have other problems.

I don't think so. Some people, myself included don't see a point in committing.It's like how much is winning a stupid argument really worth?

It depends on if the person running away is JustMyOpinion and it depends on whether or not the argument relates to his sig.

Just give an answer for both

I'd say physically or metaphorically is fine (i.e. leaving a topic)
