Men: do you care if your girlfriend refers you as your fiance?

Would you not care if you two know you are going to get married down the line but can't at the moment due to location and/or lack of money (for wedding, ring, etc)?

The only reason a man would be upset about this is if he wants you to think there is a future between the two of you so he can get some. Because if he is not willing to let people know about a future marriage then he is not really all in.

Shit like that has ended relationships with me. One girl went around saying that and it got back to my family and it upset them that I ddin't tell them. This to me is ani=other stunt women pull to force men into marriage. If you tell enough people, the guy will look like an ass if he ever backs out. You are pretty much forcing him to marry you by pulling something like this. So that was why I dumped her.

I don't think that's a good idea. My ex-boyfriend's mother once referred to ME as her son's WIFE in public. I thought that was disturbing. People don't like when you call them something they are not. But why don't you just ask your guy what HE thinks. Maybe he would love for you to call him your fiance, especially if you have talked about marriage before. But I would ask him what he thinks first.

Unless he has popped the question, refer to him as your man, boyfriend and or lover, but to say fiance is a lie.

If I didn't ask her yet it would bother me.

It's kind of stupid and desperate for a girl to run away declaring her boyfriend is her fiance when he isn't.

Tie a string around your finger, go to Courthouse and get married. When you can afford it later, get the ring, then save up some more and have the Wedding and Reception.

The other stuff is just 'extra' and not necessary if two people really want to get married.

As long as there is an understanding I see no problem.

That all depends on your 'situation'. If you have had that talk, and you are both on that same page, and have that agreement, then there shouldn't be a problem. Why don't you just make it easy on yourself, and ask him if it would bother him if you refeered to him as your fiance?

If you're engaged to the guy that just makes you sound desperate.

Rating Received:


If there has not been an accepted proposal, you're not engaged. Thus, he is not your fiancé. Doesn't matter if you've discussed getting married eventually, you're still just together.

I would be upset about it if I didn't ask her to marry me. If I did then she would be fine with referring to me as such.
