To "give up," you stop trying to remedy a situation, problem, etc. There may be a feeling of frustration and defeat that goes along with it. Ex: I've tried for hours to work this problem. I just don't know how to do it. I give up! To "give in," you stop resisting pressure to do something. Ex: She gave in to the pleas of her friends and went to the club with them.
