Hi Me;

In fact, the true traditions and customs of Thailand in regards to dating/relationship are pretty strict in comparison to the west.

According to the true customs of the country you can't just go living together etc... unless you are actually married.

However, since Thailand has developed into a 'developing country' standards have changed a lot, especially amongst the urban folks.

If you are looking for a Buddhist country that strictly adheres to custom and traditions concerning dating/relationship etc...perhaps you ought to look at the likes of Burma/Laos or especially Bhutan.

Sure, Buddhism is very laid-back in that respect as there really are no 'fixed guidelines'
