Kolkata\u2019s Sneha Halder, who works in the fashion &amp; beauty industry shares, \u201cMy in-laws gave me a lab-grown diamond on my wedding day, while my parents gifted me a real one. Subconsciously, I have never forgiven my in-laws for giving me a substitute instead of the real thing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For Gen Z, the uniqueness of a natural diamond mirrors the individuality of relationships. \u201cNo two real diamonds are alike, just like no two love stories are the same,\u201d says Bangalore\u2019s Anuya Bharatan (name changed), a 27-year-old software engineer. \u201cA genuine diamond is as rare and special as true love itself.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Hyderabad-based Sriya Reddy (name changed), an employee in a retail mall, adds, \u201cA woman leaves her home, embraces a new family, and builds a life with her partner. Shouldn\u2019t she be honoured with something as invaluable and irreplaceable as a real diamond?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>But love isn\u2019t just about romantic relationships. Ahmedabad\u2019s Daya Patel, 30, a woman\u00a0 entrepreneur in the food sector,\u00a0\u00a0is redefining Valentine\u2019s Day on her own terms: \u201cThis year, I choose to celebrate myself. I\u2019m gifting myself a real diamond\u2014a timeless symbol of my strength, achievements, and self-worth. This diamond will be a reminder of everything I have worked for and the brilliance I carry within.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>So, whether you\u2019re celebrating your partner or yourself, let this Valentine&#8217;s Day be a testament to real, lasting love\u2014because when it comes to expressing true affection, only the real deal will do.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This Valentine\u2019s Day, love takes many forms\u2014romantic, self-love, and familial bonds\u2014but one sentiment remains unchanged: the desire to celebrate it meaningfully.
