Fiance?

Fiance, to me, is a very strange term. It's awkward to say, sounds extremely snooty (look at me! look at me! I have a fiance!), and I'm afraid someone is going to do this to me:



So I call Josh my boyfriend even though I've been warned that people with traditional notions will take offense to it. How often do I get into deep discussions with extremely traditional people anyway? Especially about my wedding, I don't even want to get into it with them....
