Sorry, but I don't feel that you did. I know if my child did that then I'd be quite upset tbh. Ideally, you should both be able to discuss rather than argue the issue. Respect for one another is the key.

Yup...

It's best to give space to cool off so you both can approach it with a level head!

I think it's fine to go cool off... but did you say anything or just leave? you shouldn't make her worry about you.

It's best to give yourself time to chill out, you should talk it out with her and try to come up with a compromise that you both can agree to. This will show maturity on your part.

When you say fight are you talking about hitting each other if this is the case then yes you did the correct thing, If you are talking about an arguement then no, you should not have walked away. Sit both of yourselves down and discuss your problems in a civalised manner.

You did the manly thing. My husband always did this years ago when we argued and it drove me up a wall!!! Till he explained to me that he knew he would never calm down till he left. And didn't want to say anything he would be sorry for. It really is a very loving, mature wonderful thing to do and I hope you can explain to your Mom why you did it and why she should be proud of you for doing it.

MOM I LIKE GOD, GOD CAN'T PERSONALLY COME 2 EVERY PERSON SO HE SENT THE MOM. TRY TO RESPECT YOUR MOM. YOUR ACT WAS DUE 2 YOUR EGO. AT THE SAME TIME YOU HAVE HURT UR MOM.
NO ONE'S EGO SHOULD BE SO BIG THAT HURTING THE MOTHER IS A SMALL THING.

You failed.

The reason why is because at some point during this "fight", you believe you had to stand up for yourself. You didn't. Most parents (as you can see by some of the replies you are getting) simply want one thing for you, and it isn't happiness. It's called, "Blind Obedience". They merely want to exert their "power" upon you, and any sign that you may be starting to think for yourself makes their anxiety levels climb. This is because they fear that without dominion over you, they are Obsolete.

The truth is: the became Obsolete when you learned to feed yourself.

You don't owe her - or anyone - any excuses or explanations. Just live your life and if she gets in the way, laugh at her. The sooner you can get away from the poison that she is, the better. Until then, merely laugh. She is no menace. She is just an Obsolete Woman.

Depends on the fight. I do that with my mother only because our fights go nowhere and she gets really personal with insults.

Good walking out when: You know there's no point, things are getting irrational and unfair and you want to avoid drama and petty insults.

Bad walking out when: You dislike the point the other person made, and instead of talking over it you leave.

Honestly man, I wouldn't worry about it. Especially if it was a yelling match and not a discussion.

It's good if the argument is leading nowhere and has been reduced to petty insults, but for me the decent thing to do is to tell the other party that you're taking a time-out for the meantime and not just shutting the conversation abruptly.

Just think of how you'd feel if the situation were reversed and the person you care about would suddenly walk out on you during an argument. Suddenly walking out is the equivalent of having someone hang up on you or suddenly going offline during a heated discussion. Just because you're an adult doesn't entitle you to treat your parents or anyone else disrespectfully during an argument. Peace.
