If you have a "protection from abuse order" against, say, Joe Blow, and you go to a public place and he's there, do you need to leave or does he?

Obviously, if you’re in a public place, like a club or restaurant and he shows up and refuses to leave, if you can prove to management that you have a PFA on him, he’ll be asked to leave. But what if he’s already there when YOU get there?
I would assume that logically you would be the one to turn around and leave, but I’m wondering, if you wanted to be a b!+@#, could you force Joe Blow to leave?
