Exactly how do you tell the difference between a real diamond and a fake one? Or is there a way to tell without having a professional jeweler test it? I've heard of so many different ways that you should be able to tell them apart, but I'm not quite sure if there myths or actual facts. I'd appreciate any and all feedback. Thanks.

This has been asked and answered many times. There is a search box near the bottom of the page where you can look up previous discussions on the matter. Try searching for 'fake diamond' or just 'fake'.
