There comes a time when caveman instincts are all that you have left. Do you fight for something that you want and risk wasting lots of time and effort, or do you take flight and risk the gain of a regret?
There are positives and negatives in both options:
Fight:
+ It may turn out to be worth your while
+ You can say that you tried your best, even if it doesn't go to plan
- You are risking feeling like a failure
- The effort may not be reciprocated (depending on the situation) leaving you hurt
Flight:
+You get out without getting hurt or disappointed
+You don't have something to add to a list of failures
-You may regret it in the long run
-You risk hurting or disappointing the other people involved
So, now it's all a case of what's more important for you to avoid; being hurt, or hurting others. Are some situations simply beyond justification, should you 'go with your gut'?
No one can decide that for you, you are the only one with the answer to the question in the title!
