You have to stand there and fight, don't run away.
When there is a fight in real life, that's complicated. The situation can change any moment, there can be multiple attackers, they can have weapons, you can get injured. Many things could happen.
You are good at fighting, but if someone has a gun, he can shoot you from distance. Here comes defending yourself against guns. When you fight to protect yourself, the main point is to defend yourself and get back home alive.
Your strike, blocks, behavior, strategy - everything is based on that. What other people think of you, it does not matter. If you think you can run and defend yourself by getting out of there, you can do so.
Sometimes you cannot run. Well, you can talk to the attacker, calm him down, or change the situation. You can draw other people's attention and use your environment against the attacker. In case the attacker starts attacking you, you have to fight back as a defense.
When we talk about self defense, some people think it is all about doing parry and blocks. You have to strike. When the attacker feels the pain, he might not be interested to attack you again, or at least he will think twice to do so. Even when you block, you can hit and hurt the attacker with that.
The situation might get out of control and if you think that getting out of there would be a good idea, you fight and find a way to move from there. You do not have to stand there and keep fighting all day long.
If they grab you, you can make your move to defend that. In case the attacker grabs your throat and chokes you, you have to be very fast to defend yourself, otherwise, you will be in big trouble. I made a post about how to defend yourself against grabbing throat and choking, and what you should do. You can read this post here.
You can learn self defense techniques about how to escape and get out of the danger zone. If you escape and run away from the spot, you need to do that. If you are able to protect yourself, that's all that matters.
