depends who it is talking to. some people anymore are unreasonable, I've never seen people so head strong and opinionated at times... just saw a knock down drag out with hurt feelings about facebook policy... lol!
I'd just say, we agree to disagree and end it at that.
if it is someone I really care about, I listen to their opinion, and reaffirm my care for them, that most issues don't matter that much to cause emotional harm and try and make it feel ok. If I feel strongly about it, then I say that, but accept their view.
this stuff can trash relationships... it's not worth it.

This needs some context.
1. Do you mean immediately when one starts and he/she has no rational response?
2. Do you mean when you are the one receiving B. S. and lies and, disgusted with it, walk away?
3. Do you mean people who just don't like the tension?
It depends on the person and how serious the topic of the argument is.
Some people need to cool off and gather their thoughts so they can better articulate what they have to say, and it may be a very sensitive issue with several perspectives and factors to consider.
The person could also just be immature and not good at communicating with others, and the topic of discussion could make them uncomfortable or result in them looking bad and they may want to save face by just not discussing the problem.
I dont like that at all. But I could say, "Please give me some space while I think about what I want to say or do." Like next room. I would not be okay with my SO leaving/walking away. That to me shows big problems that might need counseling.

I feel Indifferent. They might not be in the state of mind to continue the argument, they might also be a coward. Really depends.
I think it's different for everyone. Some people just aren't into arguing, some like arguing but in a friendly manner and as soon as it comes to bashing each other, they may quit. Some argue using logics and facts and seeing no point of arguing with someone who just can't stand losing an argument, no matter how illogical they may sound, makes the smarter one walk away. Some have plenty of shit to speak but they just aren't in the mood at that time or don't consider it worthy to argue. Still, some are cowards who after picking up an argument, don't know how to support it.
I don't like to argue and usually avoid it as I don't feel the need to prove my point if I'm totally convinced of my opinion as I based my opinions solely on logic but if someone kept arguing then they are better to be prepared to back up their opinion as I will be very critical, harsh and won't back down even if it annoyed them.
They better walk away from the beginning or be very prepared.It really depends on why they're doing it. If they're just fed up then it's not productive. If it's to make a point or make the other person feel guilty, it's not productive.
But if you need it in order to process, then it can be okay. as long as you make that very clear from the beginning, and you are walking away so that you can come back with a clear head and finish working it out.
Leaving stuff unfinished just means it's buried and will fester, only to come up later in a far more deadly form.It might not feel great but I'd rather them walk away than say something out of anger they don't mean. In my experience when someone walks away it's because they need that space to calm down. Nothing gets solved when its heated and you likely won't understand each other.
They don't want to deal with this bullsh*t , two they don't want to get in a physical confrontation with that person. But the person their walking away from will probably think their a coward , a chicken sh*t or that their bluntly ignoring them. But I just think its best to walk away unless you are in the wrong.
So just be upfront in the argument and try to reason but if you can't walk away let both you and the person calm down.I’m personally that type of person that I just need to walk away.. but because I need time to process it and not just react out of emotional impulse.. because i most often say things I regret and hurt the other person. So I rather get my space and get myself in a calm state of mind.
Indifferent...(most the time Im walking away)
It better be something that life-changing or really important to get me to form words long enough.
I will humor the person for as long as my attention span cares to have any fucks than after that...
Always depends on how the person is presenting themselves. Are they being st8 up disrespectful or do they sound like they are two year old once an again? One should walk away. Nothing going to get solve that day.That’s what I do 😂 when the argument starts to seem pointless or if the person is getting on nerves too much, I just leave. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with that and if the same were to be done to me (and it has), then obviously the conversation is over. There’s no need to harp over a dead end.
I don't think they're a coward at all. Sometimes, you're just tired of an argument, or can't even be bothered to argue anymore. It's hard to keep that same heated and angry energy for a long period of time. If we've been arguing for 30 mins straight and STILL haven't gotten anywhere, I'm honestly just done.
It depends. Sometimes it’s a good thing and is absolutely needed / necessary. Maybe they need to calm down process their thoughts so as to not say or do something in the heat of the moment
On the other hand if they are walking away to avoid it altogether then that’s a different story! And won’t fix the problem at handMost of the time arguing is completely pointless and does nothing but stoke more anger.
If I'm arguing with someone in a mostly calm and respectful manner, I have no reason to walk away. Call me names, keep inturrupting me, and yelling at me, and I will turn around and walk away in a heart beat. I will not engage with you untill you calm down. Otherwise, I'm out. I'm not obligated to stand there and take any advise from anyone.unless I’m trying to make a really valid/important point then i’ll walk away and not entertain most arguments. waste of time, i personally think it’s a mature thing to do it’s so much better than causing and scene and/or letting things get worse
Maybe he thinks he is loosing an argument so he better walks away or he may think of u as stupid to even argue about anything so he doesn't give a damn.. And lots of peoole would just ignore u whatever u say and then u just think after sometime that yay u said something which was not to be said... haPpened with me one or two times
Sometimes walking away can keep an argument from escalating BUT eventually, the topic that caused the argument in the first place might rise up again later. So, sometimes it's better to get it over with and talk about it now rather than later. Also, nothing is worse than the silent treatment it may give some people the right to cheat. The mature way is to talk calmly or agree to disagree.
It's the mature thing to do. When we get heated in the moment, we're only utilizing the emotional side of our brain, and a solution won't come from that. A solution will only come when both parties are in a calm and logical state of mind. Arguments also kill romance and cause resentment.
It depends. If it is because it's some stranger or someone they are not so close to that tries to trigger them and loves drama for no reason it's Good.
But if it's someone they are close to and it's something serious and they walk away every time a problem comes then it's bad.I do it all the time. Just like you feel like it your right to talk about it right then and there. I feel like I should walk away cool off and prepare myself to not act out of anger.
Depends on the argument, and his personality.
On the basis of the argument, if it’s something non-important then they get a pass. If it’s something critical and they run away, then that’s just immaturity and not dealing with a situation.
On the basis of the personality, if they’re talkative and confrontational and they walk away then that’s a red flag. If they’re more silent, then they need time to think, but only for a moment or depending on the severity of the topic.It's way more mature than getting heated and let things get out of hand. Sometimes it's better to take a break/leave if you know you could "lose" it.
