^^ believe me , being in a country with 'traditional' relationship values is not really much better .
I'd rather be in a Third World country where there's still some norms and traditions than in an Post-Industrial nation like America or Europe where most everyone is sleeping with anyone or anything with their legs open, only to then want a committed relationship 10 - 20 years later. I personally feel like Post-Industrial nations and the people in it have forgotten about self-control and moderation and are continuously wanting more and more, indulging in everything they can.
Believe me when I say I'd die a happy man if I were living somewhere where there's still some sense of self-control and discipline when it comes to urges, where committment means a lot more and is valued. Committment and self-control, I feel like, aren't valued in Post-Industrial and even Industrial societies. For being advanced nations, they sure don't display such with their actions. \:

Believe me , the relationships in the 'traditional' societies are very MATERIALISTIC and greedy , the girl's parents usually interfere too much in any relationship and they test u if u can be a good 'provider' potential husband for her and most girls are raised in that way ...and as about loyalty/love/dignity there's a lot of hypocrisy in these matters here , sometimes i feel that western are more honest when it comes to relations . These are the only "norms" that you are calling for .
