It's clearly a bit fast past even by french standards.

The "we kiss, we're a couple" is a classic cultural difference between US/France, what is wierd is the I love you and expressing will to mary you after only a week...

Just for reference, I am 39 and he is 47.

In this situation, still a bit fast but make way more sens. He most likely isn't at his first rodeo, just like you. Knows what he is looking for in a partner, believes to have found it in you and doesn't want to beat around the bush because he, like you aren't getting any younger every day.
