Do you love using the word fiancé(e) and work it into conversation whenever you can? Or is it not your favorite? "I love using the word fiancé(e)" - true or false? Next Question: I've forgotten to wear my engagement ring Back to the Beginning: True or False?

    True! And I absolutely agree with everyone who says it feels to braggy/showboaty, lol. I’m definitely comfortable letting everyone know how excited I am to get to marry my girl.

    The only thing i don’t like is that saying it, it’s gender neutral. I can’t wait to marry her in a few days and call her my wife, so people can stop assuming it’s a guy!

    False - as some others have mentioned I feel like it makes it sound like a brag. I'm not looking for extra attention around it so I'll just keep using boyfriend for now Smiley smile

    False - Although that's what I am, I've been one before and it really doesn't affect me like it did when I was younger. I will say it but I don't put a lot of emphasis on it. When we talk to each other, we will say it playfully with emphasis because we've been together so long and now we're about to be married. I love him infinitely and wife is more important that fiance

    Not a fan of the way the word sounds, for some reason! Sometimes I still call him my boyfriend, and correct myself. Just doesn’t sound natural. I think husband will sound better than fiancé.

    False. I still catch myself calling him my boyfriend, and he's okay with it. I have always had problems with attachment and showing the typical romantic emotions. I show it in my own way, and saying fiancé just sounds too showy for me, and makes me feel odd. For me it is either boyfriend or husband.
