Dating in France vs America🇫🇷🇺🇸

Dating in France vs America… From exclusive relationships to the fluidity of love, I talk about the cultural contrasts that shape dating norms in these two countries. Which is more your style: France or America?

  • French dating strikes me as rather convoluted. I’d rather have a strait-laced woman who’s blunt about her feelings for me than a woman who wants to toy with me. If I wanted to be toyed with, she can play with my Transformers figures with me.

    • Nah it’s not like that, French are not toying with you they just have a different sensibility in terms of romance. If you move to France it probably means you have an affinity for the culture and you’ll have no problem knowing a girls feelings for you, they are a very affectionate people in fact.

    • It's not about toying, it's about taking the necessary time to get to know the person and figure out if the relationship is compatible long-term, whilst not dating on the side like Americans do. It's basically a "I like you, let's try and see where it goes, and we don't date around while we figure it out together".
      It can happen that you discover that you have incompatible values overtime, or different life goals that you didn't expect, or simply that you realize it cannot work long term, then you break up before meeting someone else. To me, this is much healthier than "testing" out several options at once

    • @@Monanged it is still about a “relationship “ and not love. French are just like any other people in Western Europe. Most of the “values “ are recent in nature and have been eroding the culture. Relationships are about spending time with someone for a convenience…not love. It doesn’t matter whether it is done the American way or the French way. The end results are similar…people living in loveless unions.

  • Hey Maria please make more videos like this specifically on Canada. I have met people here who are super friendly at first but when you ask them out like for a coffee, film or appreciate them for their beauty etc they show their real feelings for you by ignoring most of the time

    • I will be making a video on American vs European mentality and will also explain Canada in that :)

  • I bet, that's why us American men are going overseas to find love, because the women of other countries still want to be women, unlike most American women.

  • Dating is exclusive in France, but marriage is inclusive, apparently. Just ask most French politicians.

  • Maybe I missed your video on this, but I don’t fully understand the terms “high context” and “low context” for describing different countries…does high context just mean having more rules for behaviors?

    • Low context means more is spelled out verbally, while high context means a lot is nonverbal. (Japan is an example of a high context culture, Germany of a low context one.)

    • @@nico5173 ok smart ppl why do you French people pr France have a failing economy even tho they literally eat off African nations. They take their resources and soccer players and still failing. Yea they are not the nation for travelers or smart people. And Paris is ghetto lol
