Depends on the circumstance. If I am there for someone I care about, or a personal or work duty, I will grin and bear it until I can leave.

If I have nothing to keep me there, I will wait it out to see if I change my mind. I am open to being uncomfortable, but if the feeling stays and gets worse, I leave as quickly as possible.

I am a firm believer in that still small voice, that gut feeling you get when somethings not right. I get the heck out of there! It's only happened to me three times where it was urgent..... But numerous times I should have "listened."

As in a business establishment? There are some that I have walked in, looked around and walked back out. As for social instances, I usually stay long enough to be polite and then leave. As for a relationship, sigh...I was in a five year relationship when I was in my early to mid-20s. The last two years never should have happened. I could have and should have saved myself a lot heartache. From that point on, I wouldn't stay more than a month if i didn't see the other person at least try to make an effort to make things better.

Depends on if I am alone or accompanying someone. If I am there for them, I tend to stay longer then I want to, but I do take many breaks to step outside or in a bathroom.

I can usually acclimate to most situations . . . Thnak goodness for Cellphones with Games to play.

Depends on the circumstances.  Some situations are what they are and I hang around and try to make the best of them.  And then there are some situations that don't require such attention or worry.  They allow the luxury where if you're not happy....you just leave. Sure I suppose there can be loose ends in any situation but it's a question of how attached you are to them.
