To give up on something: simply leave a situation behind, ignoring it, and going away to start new ones.
Person #1: I hear the Watson's are moving away so they don't have to cut down their trees for the town.
Person #2: No, I'm pretty sure they are just running away.

A saying that is applied when somethimg is falling on or chasing someone, and instead of turning and running to get out of the path of the object, this person runs straight instead.
