Indeed, I made a mistake (Imagine that!)
But I hope it does not detract from any other comments.
Anyone else who wants to use those words should use the usage that
Kara-Ohki used.

Thanks, I was about to make the same reply. One e for a man, two for
a
woman.
The English language is SO strange!

I notice that here you use "fiancee", but earlier you used
"fiance".
Either one is correct, but I think it would be better to stay
consistent.
No, Kara-Ohki's usage is correct. Fiance (one e) refers to a man
betrothed to
be married. Fiancee (two e's) refers to a woman betrothed to be
married.
