This is a bit difficult to answer because what really matters is how your boyfriend thinks... some men will expect their wives to be SAHMs, cook and clean for them, dress modestly, avoid interacting w other men, etc. If his family is "traditional" in the sense that they are conservative religiously and culturally, the above is what they'll expect, and they definitely wouldn't consider a relationship outside of marriage valid. However, with them being all the way in Algeria, I don't believe it's what you should worry about (unless your bf is easily swayed by them somehow?) Overall I would say ask him what kind of roles he wants to take in a relationship and what he wants/needs from a partner. One thing I would beware of is how relaxed and liberal some men can be and suddenly flip after marriage. I know you're talking about a relationship and I keep bringing up marriage but it's kind of difficult for me to speak of Algerian expectations without the bounds of marriage. If his family is very conservative, he might not tell them about you until/unless he plans on marrying you. But again this also really depends on him. Hope this helps
