There are people with opinions on both sides of the argument.  Some say:

- “Fake diamonds are way more affordable and therefore a better decision financially!”
- “I don’t want to support the diamond slave trade!”
- “I’d rather get a fake and use the money we saved as a down payment on a house or investment!”

And other people say:

- “I don’t want a fake ring!”
- “A diamond is significant, should come from the Earth, and should last forever (just like love)!”
- “A real diamond is a sign of commitment.”

Both sides of the argument have valid points.

At any rate, for anyone interested in a fake diamond, it is worth taking the time to learn about the difference between high quality fakes and low quality fakes, how to tell the difference between a real diamond and a fake diamond, the different types of diamond alternatives out there, and what you should know about getting a fake diamond set and mounted on a ring or piece of jewelery.
