it happens when you lag or when your connection is bad. The simple way is to explain your opponent the situation.

If is polite, he will accept a draw.

If he doesn't accept, well, his objective in life is to win an online game, so your life is 1000 times better than his, just resign and find an other opponent.

I think this is a false dichotomy...
