Clearing your head and resuming is fine, but my wife used to walk away from an argument as a tactic to control it. She'd stew for a few days and bring it back up at the least desirable moment when she thought she might have an upper hand. We seem to have gotten past that.
There ought to be a statute of limitations on old arguments. It's hard to defend or even explain dumb shit I did 10 years ago.
