LOS ANGELES, Calif. --

Single “Gossip Girl” star Chace Crawford has allowed fans a peek into his dating etiquette in a new interview.

Crawford, who plays Nate Archibald, on the popular CW drama headed up a “Dear Chace” column in the September issue of Glamour’s UK edition and in the piece, he revealed he believes a person can have many loves in life.

“I believe we all have a handful of soulmates,” Chace wrote in the mag, according to People. “The most important thing to me is someone who makes me laugh. I know that’s cheesy, but really it’s not as complicated as you think.”

The star, who was last linked romantically to former “American Idol” winner Carrie Underwood, said he often dates in a casual sort of way.

“I try to get to know the girls I’m attracted to without having an official ‘date,’” Crawford noted. “I keep it light, become their best friend and hold off on the romance. If you’re friends first, the rest of it happens more naturally.”

But when things do get romantic, Crawford offered a list of things to avoid on a first date, ones he presumably practices himself.

“An obnoxious laugh, swearing like a sailor, bad breath, breaking wind, getting blackout drunk, talking about your exes,” he said. “It’s a long list!”
