As fate would have it, I will be bringing my boyfriend (to whom I am engaged) to my work Christmas party. This means a lot of introductions. There are 25 of us in the company and with spouses and friends and the like, I'm likely to make 50+ introductions.
I hate the word "Fiance". I hate it like I hate the word "nipple".
I need a new word that we can boost into predominance as the commonly accepted term before next Wednesday.
I have faith in you.
GO!

Mon, December 4, 2006 - 1:19 AMBetrothed sounds too formal, eh?
your "paramouric occultist"?
"the one promising inlaws"?
"the guy who is picking the best man"?
"a serious drag on the competition"?
"in the marriage zone"?
(am just throwing those out to brainstorm a word...)
Meet...
The Ringster!
Okay, that may be ambiguous. Still, it has a certain, ah...'ring' to it, does it not? I've got some worse ones percolating down in the lab...
