Will she accept a lab grown engagement ring?

u/_AYYEEEE 9h ago

If she doesn't wanna marry you because the ring has a lab grown diamond in it then she isn't worth marrying. The love is the most important thing and everything else is secondary

Why wouldn’t she? I told my now husband not to waste money on a natural diamond when he could get an identical product for a fraction of the price.

u/Acceptable_Mind_5883 9h ago

Why wouldn't she? Social pressure, the internet, and most importantly the fact that people say all sorts of shit they don't mean on the internet.

It's not the dudes that want to buy the expensive diamonds. If she didn't give a fuck and if her social circle didn't give a fuck, this market would collapse

Then let's do our part to collapse the blood diamond industry. Be informed and spread awareness.

If something that petty makes a difference then the marriage was doomed anyway. Marge Simpson accepted an onion ring and they stay together through thick and thin

I would say this tweet of hers taking a very obvious stance in favour of lab diamonds and against natural diamonds would lead anyone with a working brain to to conclude yes obviously, but here you are proving me wrong

u/mrturret 9h ago

I mean, I'd refuse a natural diamond.

When my mom lost the diamond out of her ring my dad replaced it with a lab grown one. When she found out, I had never seen a woman that damn pissed off. Called him every name in the book, how cheap he was, blah blah blah.
