Today, I found a diamond on the floor, which I could only assume was from one of my brother's cheap earrings. I was positive that it was fake. To prove it to myself, I ran it across my window, as they say only real diamonds cut glass. It's real. FML

Today, I found an unfamiliar ring in my purse. Thinking it was fake, I gave it to a little girl. Thanks to my mother, I later found out that the ring was my grandmother's and it was made of gold and had a real ruby. My mother added that my grandmother trusted me to keep it in our family. FML

Today, in the process of leaning over the sink to close the drain so my diamond earrings wouldn't fall in as I put them on, I dropped my diamond earring down the drain. FML

Today, I asked my girlfriend about a diamond necklace I bought her for her birthday, which she didn't seem to be wearing. She then told me she hocked it to pay for her inexpensive phone bill. I paid $1,500 for that necklace, she received $300 from the pawn shop. FML

Today, I found my wife crying. She said she’d lost her diamond ring. I backtracked her activities and suggested where to look. She found it in the fridge. She now thinks I hid it there. FML

Today, I went to Tiffany's to exchange a bracelet my boyfriend had given me for our year anniversary. It was the first gift that he actually spent money on me for. The sales lady then told me that the bracelet was not a real Tiffany's item. FML

Today, I was on Craigslist looking for a new guitar. I found the diamond earrings and necklace set I gave to my girlfriend last year. She wants 50 bucks for them. FML

Today, we got a diamond delivered to our house. I was super confused until my husband admitted he’d taken the ashes of his grandparents and parents, my mom and my grandparents', and my auntie's, mixed them all together and sent them to one of those diamond making companies. I’m divorcing him. FML

Diamond isn't the only substance that cuts glass. Some cubic zirconia (most of the "fake" looking diamonds) are strong enough to cut glass as well. The chemical makeup of cubic zirconia is different than that of diamond, but the durability of each are almost the same. Even looking at both structures under a microscope, someone might get the two confused, due to the similarities they share.. So your brothers stone might be a cubic zirconia after all...talk to a jeweler about it

A lot of things can scratch glass. Even gold, I know from experience with scratched counter tops at the jewelery store I work at. Cases with all gold stuff get scratched from it all the time, and gold is not even very hard. And BTW, if you were so positive it was fake why did you need to test it?

You can cut glass with a number of things, including another piece of glass. But I don't know if a fake diamond (cubic zirconia) can, because I don't want to waste my time looking it up on Google. :)
