Am I weak, if I choose not to stand up for myself and just walk away?

No! Sometimes standing up for yourself will just make the situation worse. Sometimes you might just be so worn down by it that you just can't. Sometimes no matter how much you stand up for yourself, they just keep going or there are too many of them. Do what is right for you!

You are not weak for doing that. In fact, turning the other cheek is better than fighting it. It's okay to not fight back- you're being mature and making a good decision.

No, I think standing up for yourself can mean walking away. Standing up for yourself does always have to face to face talking.

Of course not! That's a strong move. Walking away can make a situation easier than to argue and feel horrible about it.

There isn't really an answer to that, Theres a difference between standing up for yourself and simply walking away because you know it won't end just there. True strength lies whether your thoughts can decide what is right for you or what is wrong.

No, you're never weak. Ignoring them is only making you win. Leaving them behind and going forwards is the best thing you can do.

Not at all, walking away often means you are the stronger person.You don't let negativity affect you. The ability to hold back from a fight is a great quality to have. This is strength, not weakness.
