Who has the ball?

You go on a meeting, and you wait for an hour! You want to leave, but you cant, this is too important for you to leave!

In the 30 min that i waited more today before i left there were couple of things on my mind.

1. i am kinda nervous for all the waiting. when i am nervous, i cant think right. i am not myself.
2. it is really true that he cant finish on time with his previous meeting? and is he feeling guilty or unprofessional because of that or he is doing it on purpose?

so i was wondering who has the ball right now? negotiation wise! (small things make big difference)

1. Is it him? cause me waiting means that he doesn't respect me enough leaving me waiting and shows me "who is in charge"? (and that makes me nervous)
2. Is it me? cause he feels that that was really unprofessional and thats important for him! (so i have advantage on the next meeting, cause he has to explain him self and say sorry)

all this having in mind that both parties are really professional and its kinda friendly negotiation.

what do you think?
