He asked me to Sunday Brunch...

Hi guys, yesterday was my swearing in ceremony for passing the bar!!! I am now officially a licensed attorney!!


Hurrayyyyyyyyy!!!

Anyway sha there is this really cute guy that went to college with me and we saw each other during the bar exams after 4 years. anyway yesterday at the swearing in ceremony, we ran into each other again. he left the group he was with to come over to say hello and gave me a long, tight full body hug... OOO LOORDDD!!! i was dying!!

I must say that he is very handsome and intelligent!! HE was getting sworn in with me.

Now this is where I dont know what he wants. We exchanged numbers on the last day of exams (February 24)after staring at each other for two days. Afterwards he sent me a text saying he has my number in his phone for life and after a few hello's and how are you's, we didnt have any more contact until April when I sent him a text congratulating him on passing the bar, and then we did some back and forth and then nothing.

Fast forward to yesterday when I ran into him again. After i left the ceremony, I sent him a text asking him when we will be celebrating. and he replied

"sooner than later i hope"

so i said "is friday after work good?"

and he replied

"this weekend is swamped for me with family (his sister is having a baby) and next weekend i have a wedding in NYC, can we plan for brunch on a Sunday?"

when i read this i was think OMG, he is friending me. WTH does he want to meet me in the middle of the day on Sunday????

i do like him cos he is so smart and handsome and normal (so far)so I was sad that he seemed to want to do Sunday brunch, so I asked one of my guy friends what Sunday brunch meant and whether it means the guy is friend zoning me and my friend replied

"Maybe he wants to marry you" "Sunday brunch is a good thing"

And me being the skeptic that I am refused to beleive so I started doing research online and I found this response to this exact question on Mens Health Website under Ask the Girl next door column.

Sudnay Brunch first date?
Response: Here's what my friends would assume about a guy who invited them out for pancakes: (1) You must be looking for love, since a hookup is pretty hard to pull off that early in the day. (2) You're over your wild phase and into cuddling on the couch. (3) You're mature enough to face an awkward social situation completely sober. All are appealing qualities to someone who's ready to settle down. But to a woman who likes the thrill of meeting after dark and tasting vodka on a new acquaintance's tongue, a brunch date might seem a little boring. And maybe even insulting -- as in, "What, I'm not hot enough to merit dinner?"


I didnt think I wasnt hot enough, I just thought he was thinking I was just a friend. I want to be more than a friend, so guys please help me out. What does Sunday brunch mean?

  4. Just go. U r over thinking it. It means it was a convenient time to get to see you since he would be so busy. He could have made his excuses and not put any effort into making concrete plans to see you. Chill out and stop reading meaning into things.

  6. This is such a cute post. I think Sunday brunch is a good starting point. It's better than coffee and not as involved as dinner so like others have said, just relax and enjoy it.
