Hi, im trying to impress this beautiful french girl, to help this
along what are some of the customs of dating a french girl, what would
she expect?

Not only a french girl, any girl needs to be impressed if we need to
find a place close to her.  First what you need to do is, try to learn
french from her only, ask her teach, try to speak french a bit every
day, and try spelling incorrectly and funnily, this all applies when
you dont know french.
Then keep praising her all the time saying that you are beautiful,
your dress is great and her pony is gorgeous, her hair is like this,
her cheeks and sandals or shoes what not, but not all at a time, give
a timely compliment.

Try to know what she likes what she doesnt, then try to behave in the
way she likes.  I will give you a small example, suppose if you tell
her today that her pony or hair is good and the style she makes pony
is great, then wheneever she dresses her hair, she will remember you
and your words, that's it, your job is done, first you should make her
think about you, and when that intensity crosses a threshold..the girl
is yours.

All the best

Are you American?  If yes, tell her you voted for John Kerry...  That
will win over any Frenchwoman's heart...  :)

A similar question was asked a few months ago:

In the words of the great Hanibal Lecter, ?The way to a woman?s heart
is an unexpected gift at an unexpected time;)

Keep the great info flowing, I'm taking notes.

I am not French, but I think I speak for many women. In the past, when
I was single, men who made a concerted effort to "impress" me
generally failed in the attempt. When someone falls all over himself
doling out compliments, giving me gifts, and hovering over me, my
impulse is to run the other direction. There is a fine line between
pleasant flirting behavior and scary obsessing behavior, and if you
cross that line, you will appear to be a stalker.

If this is the right woman for you, you shouldn't have to work to
impress her. Doing so, even if it is effective, will lead her to
believe that you are something other than what you are. A woman may
fall for an act short-term, but she isn't likely to fall in love with
one.

if you're American and proud of it, introducing her to a deodorant you
like may help..

For me a great sense of humor is more important than, gifts or compliments.
Men who are trying to impress sometimes try too hard, and that can
actually backfire. But make us laugh, and we'll remember how you made
us feel.(you=happiness) I married the funniest guy I met, even though
I only liked him as a "friend" for more than a year. Meanwhile the
loosers I was dating fell to the side, while he was there and kept me
laughing. So there's my two cents, sorry to keep rambling.

For me its if the man is honest and sincere.

I'm pretty intuative, and when talking to and observing a man, I can
usually tell whether he is both in a matter of a few minutes....

My man is both and a *keeper* as far as I'm concerned.

Ah, my, If I had a penny for the times I?ve heard the story about the
guy who laughed the girl all the way into bed......

Listen up ieexplorer-ga, hilda18-ga  has the comment that really matters.

Tell her you are Scottish -- ?The Auld Alliance?.

Alternatively, if as you say she is beautiful, tell her she is a "tres
laid" (very ugly) and "un cochon" (a pig). I kid you not.

The 'Scottish Alliance', wasn't that an insurance company?

CF. Are You thinking of "Scottish Amicable". I guess after the
"trusts" come the "bonds". Yeah, that might impress a girl to no end.

I might know it would be you Aussies that would know about trusses and bonds.

des fleurs. Sadly enough, in anglo culture it's seen as effeminate to
give flowers to a gal

You and I have something essential in common because It's been 9months
that I have been trying to impress this french called Sandra. One
thing you need to know is that modern French girls don't like to be
anyone's product, they are pretty much the women of their own. If she
doesn't really like you, then there is no way you can impress her, and
if you try hard enough, she will then run away for ever. do not let
her find you simple because that's what put them off.
there is a big different between girls from Paris and girls from
outside Paris. girls from Paris are very arrogant, so you can really
see as so called "french loving girls". apparently they act exactley
like the girls in Sex and The City, there out for fun up until someone
powerful comes along.
I would love to know how you met her and what has happened between you
so far, that would give me an insight to your story, then i will be
able to give you the right advise. this is my email address :
