That's everywhere. But some ppl have formed relationships there so ppl tend to try it anyway. (Yes I know it's not common)

[@MaevaBM]

ahah this "dating" concept is so weird to Europeans, at least to Frenchies. In theory, I can see the good side of it, but it feels sooo counter-intuitive, like "you seem nice but I keep my options open because I'm not so sure", which is something I would be so insulted if a guy was doing that to me. The french mentality is more that you commit: you are in it and that's it, but on a day to day development, not thinking marriage or anything more than 1 year ahead. And then if it doesn't work out, you break up and done, you gave it a full shot, and won't be half not sure that maybe this guy was a good one but because you had others in mind it kinda took down your involvement. When you have too many available choices you almost end up not choosing anything. I'll always remember the shook of my boyfriend when we never have had a date, we just knew each other from school, and when he told me "I am falling for you", I just kissed him x'D There's only one way to test the chemical side yo As someone else was saying "In France, you kiss you date", so for me in order to "date" someone we need to kiss. Otherwise it's just undercover flirt that could as well be friendzone.

[@mokapeach1791]

It's totally that, I always feel that the first month is like trial period of the relation and if it don't work then you break up, it's not a big deal you honestly give a try and focus on him or her at it's fullest. And if it go longer than a year it's that the real love is here and you can start to think about either moving together or something.

I am English, live in France too, have grown up here and even I still find dating in France really intense ! I prefer not to date at all (which is sad I know) purely because guys just don't seem to understand the concept of me just wanting to get to know them without anything serious (even if I do like them). So I am happy to stay officially single and only date someone once I have already gotten to know them in another context. It's too complicated otherwise...

[@kingzans6677]

@@frenchmarron No one said all black people have the same life experiences. I'm saying they, and other people of color, do not always have the privilege of ignoring their race like white people do. Asian people may get discriminated against because of the stereotype that Chinese people have the virus. Muslims/Sikhs (not a race but you get the idea) may get discriminated against for head coverings. Black people may need to warn their children about the police because of police brutality and mass incarceration. These are not things white passing people need to deal with. I would never speak for someone else's experience and I'm honestly glad that you don't feel skin color affects you but it certainly does for a lot of people. Acting as if there is no different treatment between races only exacerbates the issue because lack of awareness = complacency. Speaking out about these issues encourages people to solve them. Just because you've never had or seen negative experiences doesn't mean they don't exist!

Omg! I live in Paris too and I have had a similar experience as tinder bae! So weird! I've currently given up on dating in Paris

[@TiffanieDavis]

Lol! The struggle! It's hit or miss over here

[@candacenkoth]

Try Bumble or Hinge, you may have better interactions and dates These apps force people to be more intentional and/or transparent that Tinder, and encourage real conversations. Plus, they are less time consuming. I don't know if it's relevant for you but I would also suggest to 1) explore going on dates with other races, 2) Be more specific about what you value/love in relationships in your app description 3) Don't go on a date of the conversation does not feel great/amazing (Coucou ça va kind of chats) All the best girl, keep your head up !

Have any recommendations for someone looking to visit for 1 month?

[@stephaniemariano9789]

I'd rather a man who doesn't want to get in trouble with his mum than with his wife lol

[@TiffanieDavis]

🤣☠️

[@zina6653]

Love your stories hon...so funny...some of them sound cray cray😂

[@TiffanieDavis]

Lol a mess!! x

[@silvia-with-an-i]

My goodness, I have just found and subscribed to your channel. You are beautiful inside and out!

[@crystalanamericaninsicily]

Love your hair darling!! I'm an Afro American in Italy! Oohlala. Also in Italy. Dating doesn't exist. Second date. Your practically engaged! 😂

[@TiffanieDavis]

Hey babe! Yasss love that. you're out here in Europe too + LOL! 😂

[@crystalanamericaninsicily]

@@TiffanieDavis Yes. Ever come to Milan...let me know. It's the same in Italy. Three dates. You're practically engaged!

[@carm7518]

Not really. Italian men are not that invested. They love beautiful women. And many of them. If you haven't met his mother you are not his gf.

[@ElaishaJade]

Photoshoot bae definitely sounds weird. I’ve heard that it’s considered rude in French culture to ask what someone does. But I would expect that on a date it would be ok esp. because he’s flexing. 😂

[@arabellerose6242]

Lol non it’s not. It’s considered rude to ask how much you make but not what you do

[@carinebelle4356]

Jazmin Rose indeed you are totally right, from born Parisian 👍🏽

[@kerynl.sanchez9891]

I love how you found him without looking for him. That is the best way 😻

[@slilverwhitewinterroses5211]

The part about where you got stuck at the door, the same thing happened too me when I went to Paris. The air b&b that my family and I were staying at, to get out you have to press a button and push hard, but my aunt and I didn't know that so we were stuck at the door for 10 minutes trying to get out, and the security camera was looking right at us, very embarrassing.

[@TheFentyHorse]

Thanks very much for sharing your stories lol. I went on a tinder date or two when I lived in a smaller city in France. I speak French but That didn’t help me with the “3 dates and you’re together” concept. The guy seemed cool, cute, we went on a couple dates. We didn’t have much chemistry, I found. I was gunna have to move back home shortly anyway, so I more used that excuse 😅 he didn’t seem to understand why I was ending it 😅 Oh well. Love your hair and top and I’m glad you found bae in the end!

[@losingmychic]

In my experience - it breaks down like this - Americans need things spelling out very literally, each step needs to be verbalised and a decision made. In France, UK and Australia... things are much more inferred, if you keep arranging to meet someone and kissing happens... you keep doing that until longterm goals are discussed. Its so different!

[@msi8311]

Americans need things spelled out and can’t understand inferences? Sounds generalized, best to you.

[@CrackberryMe]

You are Stunning !! Your hair is FABULOUS!!

[@ZenZen-mh6rx]

thanks for sharing! Also, just and FYI the sound effects (especially the dinging) is super loud.

[@lucya8916]

Lol! Thanks for sharing! I know what to watch out for now. I'm a Brit living in the French countryside. It would be cool to date but probably not as many options like in Paris. I think I'll give it a whirl with my limited French language skills! I might learn a few more new words 😅

[@Samsam-vq4se]

Sis african men in France are top tier, I went on a few dates in just a week 😩😩😩

[@fatimadierro2379]

Sis where you meet them at cause the one I dated was a whole asshole! 😩

[@angelle_rose]

Your hair is so beautiful! 😍

[@tj843]

Wow okay, big ouf on your part; living with your parents is way more normal in Europe and outside of the United States. What you said about him sounded really shallow but I know in the US they're more judgmental about that bc of the fact that the culture emphasizes moving out at 18. If he's a European man and he's respecting him mom its a GOOD thing. European moms are more involved in your relationship than an American mom would be.

[@leplane_]

Well said. Not only in France (and most of EU) adult children still live with their parents, but this is pretty much the SAME custom in a LOT of other countries outside the Europe! She dates there with a US mindset, instead of learning the culture she immersed herself in.

[@couch_philosoph3325]

Well I'm swiss and if a guy is still living with his parents and he isn't a student, I'm heading out. And my friends who are also girls think the same. (I'm 22 btw)

[@DaughteroftheKING_7]

Idk how I ended up here but I LOVE your hair!! 🙂

[@TiffanieDavis]

Lol thank you!!

[@-H4mburger-]

It's the same in Scandinavian culture. If you are seeing each other more than three dates you are together. But moving together people plan and talk about it. No one says, now we are together after you have been out more than three dates.

[@KittyCat1993-m6t]

I LOVE YOUR HAIR OMG

[@veronicataylor9831]

“It’s too hot to eat” 🤣

[@BubblesZitumane]

[@jazzybeca7593]

[@inspectorgadget1368]

[@PC-km6sd]

I met my Frenchman in Australia, he was here on a working visa and later sponsorship as a sous chef
