What is dating like in Greece?

[knicks_fan87]

I am curious - what is dating like in Greece? The reason I ask is I have a younger cousin, college age, who is spending the whole summer in Greece.

She's been meeting Greek men over there who have been interested in her. She expressed that she is having a difficult time figuring out the right way to behave, or what to expect from the men. Any tips I can pass on to her?

Tell her to be herself... the only thing that I can think of that's noticeably different is that you don't introduce your bf/gf to your family (immediate family, cousins, aunts/uncles, grandparents) until you're serious (i.e. ready to get married)... so, if your cousin finds herself in a relationship, tell her not to get offended if he doesn't want his family to know yet - I had this issue when I met my wife and I met (she's from Greece and I'm not).

Tell her to make a profile on eligible greeks or find a Greek dating group on FB (There's even a group for Orthodox dating if she is one).

I noticed that a lot of younger Greeks tend to date in groups. For example, everyone might know that the group will meet at a certain time at a fountain in the city or town. They will tell their love interest to meet them there, as well. The two spend some time interacting with their friends, or they might go off together and walk around. This seems to me like a great way to start getting to know a person. Initially, it looks like it is all about getting to know each other and assessing how the person interacts with their friends.
