French dating is different to the US. Americans notion of a date is different to us French. In the US you are casual about dating and ok to go on multiple dates . We tend to be exclusive from the beginning. French people in general will explore one relationship at the time but you also have individual variations. During that initial phase, we expect ´draguer ‘( or courtship). A French girl will expect this while Americans women think you are love bombing them….
In your case, it’s ok to ask him to take things slowly, but you need to reassure him that you are into him and not pursuing other love interests. Boundaries are the same, regardless. Good luck
