>I think Moissanites are inferior to diamonds in appearance in my personal, subjective opinion.

Yeah, same. They have too much bling and look exactly like something the nouveau riche would parade around. To make things worse, moissanite jewellery usually has too many gems, something you couldn't afford with diamond.

That is a bit hilarious. The fact that you couldn’t afford it with diamonds makes it worse? Am I misreading you there?

Yes, you are misreading. Diamond jewellery has one or very few stones which makes for a clean look. Moissanites are cheap so pieces featuring them usually look like pimped out rides.

Me, personally, I would give my GF the amount in stocks but I wouldn't buy either pearls or diamonds. Both are a total rip-off.
