Geneva, from the little I know about it, lies inside its own very exceptional bubble of wealth and privilege.
I would guess that such an atmosphere tends to attract a specific kind of women, your experience does not surprise me a lot.
I wonder what you mean by the 'French mentality towards relationships' though...
- saiya-jin 12y agoProbably right on spot, this place attracts specific type of people, at least for many job positions. As for French attitude, this is very subjective and local, so YMMV. Attitude of girls I met (not only dating, just friends) is that more you sleep around, the better. One girl for example was proudly saying that she did sleep with less than 20 guys, and how cool is that and I am so lucky! Or my current GF got uniform advices from her french colleagues when she broke off her last relationship, that she should sleep around for a while "to heal". Stories like these all over the place, consistent. These are not some trashy girls I met randomly on some beerfest or in stinking old bar, but women holding significant positions in multinational corps. This is of course not a general talk about all french girls, just a little sample I had an honor to meet in Geneva & around. And it doesn't apply to swiss french, they're different species altogether :)
