Did your so /your friends so actually propose by that date? And if not did you/they break up?

I have two friends that did this. Friend #1 told her boyfriend she wanted to be engaged by last October. She got engaged last week. Friend #2 wanted to be engaged by January 2 years ago. Her mom gave him a diamond, so it's not like he's saving for a ring. She is still with him and waiting for a proposal.

I guess I want to know what others did in this situation. For friend #1 waiting worked out. I feel so bad for friend #2, I want her to be happy and I know she so badly wants to be married. She already has the wedding planned, and it's awesome!
