• Invest your time in someone to get to know him/her - the French way [4:00]
• Love labels (and not levels) - so many options in the US vs you're together or you're not, in France [6:00]
• Texting is different than dating [8:05]
• What about speed dating? [9:46]
• Being exclusive? Only in the US because in France, the kiss seals the deal [10:45]
• Friends with benefits? The "plan cul" in France [11:25]
• Eric's experience in dating a French guy [12:04]
• Sex on the first date - Laurianne's views vs Eric's ones [14:50]
