He gives them for gifts and uses them religiously to pay tips at restaurants. Though he’s never said, i think he does it so that people remember him. I suspect you and he may have a similar temperament!

that line Before
Time waits for nobody ten minutes
At sushi train and your face
I am so sorry I gotta go

I call it the meet and greet
I like to keep things simple
And sweet

So I keep on moving
Deep into the night
I want this loser gone
Take him out of my sight

Yet as we exchange
pleasantries
He mentions will I come to his

I like that James set up systems to prevent himself from talking too much, staying too long, blowing his cover — all this in advance of the actual date.

This applies to running a business, too. A lot of people (including me) read entrepreneur blogs, etc, but still leave key execution moments open to emotion, choice, and chance.
 
A good reminder that we should get busy coaching the restaurant staff — and other ‘invisible’ players that have an impact on our success rate — instead.

If I had a penny for everytime I heard “I have to go”… ;) A good movie if you haven’t seen it already is “Gia” with Angelina Jolie, it’s the story of the world’s first super model: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0123865/
One relevant quote Gia says: “I have to go… I have to go… where the fuck does everybody go when they have to go?” I wonder this myself… :)

It sounds like from your blog posts you are very smart and self reflective and have over come it but the traits and thought processes you describe seem very fitting. It’s not a bad thing — many of the worlds most successful people have had it!

already offered by several online dating sites. However, the service
continues with picking out potential matches, the writer then sends
introductory e-mails to the possible matches and continues messaging
back and forth until they can confirm the date. Although the service was
used at first mainly by men, this has changed with more ladies using
this service as well.
