    Because you've made them angry enough to want to remove themselves from the situation before they do something they regret.

      Them removing themselves is both emotional control and intelligence; being able to step back and calm down and then look at things afresh is a very reasonable thing to do.

    Because they often feel their arguments are ignored or dismissed and the debate has become emotional. They feel that the girl is not being fair to them and is not listening to their arguments, but just thinking about herself.

    Bad parenting; they've just never learned to discuss issues constructively. Probably their parents had a shitty relationship, or no relationship.
