Liz Tuccillo, writer of Sex and the City and co-author of He's Just Not That Into You, goes around the world to see what single life is like in other countries. Here's what the "dating" life is like in France.
[TRANSCRIPT]
Ok, so If I’m going with him tonight, is it a date or is it not a date?
You know, we don’t have dates.
Dates doesn’t exist.
I see people, men and women, in café’s having drinks!
It is not a date!
What is it then!?
Okay, there’s a guy at work, ooo, that you have a crush on, ahhh. And he says lets go to a bar tomorrow night and have a drink. You don’t go ‘ I think he asked me out! We’re on a date. Oh my god what am I gonna wear!?’
No!
No!? This is madness. You don’t consider it a date?
No.
It’s like an open window but it’s not necessarily what we call a date.
Cause a date is like a code. You know, you go out with someone you have drinks, and then he walks you home-
Yea.
And then he gives you a kiss-
Yea.
If a guy asks to have a drink, we have a drink and we’re just meeting someone.
Do you think you might fix your hair a little bit better for that?
We are more spontaneous maybe? We don’t need to have rules to put name on things. I like him, I will spend the night with him directly. I don’t need to have drinks with him.
Let’s say if you’re at work where you can’t immediately go have sex you have to have a drink first-
You can have sex everywhere!
You crazy French ladies!
