We talk a lot about timelines — when you should get your education, where you should be in your career, how old you have to be when you get married, and the age when it's OK to start having children. We feel the pressure to not only have these things but when to have them as well. One Instagram account, however, is rejecting these constraints with style. And humor. 'Not Engaged' is dedicated to one woman's ringless left hand traveling to places and events while using the hashtag #blessed. And she's not alone. The account already has over 103k followers who call her 'Queen' and enjoy every step of her journeys.

A- hem; Santa is married, but he still brings single people presents. Go lasso the moon for your own enjoyment, Mary. Merry Christmas. — I think I just heard a bell ring.

"I created Not Engaged after traveling home from an engagement party," the creator of the account, Mary McCarthy told Bored Panda. "On the way back, I picked up some tacos and texted my friends a picture of my hand with the caption, 'When you're not engaged but at least you have tacos.' The rest is history."

"Despite how far we've come, there is always a focus on getting married and having kids," she said. "You just can't escape it. What I think has been an eye-opener for me, is that single, engaged, and married women have followed and are fully behind the content. Everyone's just out there living their lives. And sometimes it's amazing and we're out traveling the world, taking it by storm, and sometimes we're stuck at home on a Friday night, cleaning our tub. What I know for sure is that it will be true whether you are in a relationship or not, so just enjoy it and do your best not to compare yourself to anyone else."

Over time, the account has turned into this incredible community of women empowering each other and reminding one another that no matter where you are in your life, you're doing great. "I see a lot of weddings, and engagement photos, and the like (which is amazing, yay love) but that can make single ladies feel isolated when it's every other photo and we are all consumed in the social machine," Mary explained. "Despite the flood of engagement photos in your social media feeds, I hope my account can be a fun little reminder that you are not the last single woman left on the planet. No matter what your aunt says. Your life shouldn't feel smaller because you don't have a significant other."

Do things you enjoy. It is easier to find someone who enjoys the same things while you are involved in what interests you. But you do have to do something outside your own home. (As you already do.) You still want enough differences between you to stay interesting to each other.

Who are these sticks who turn up their noses at croissants with gobs of soft butter? Oh, they are the engaged, who can't eat because they have to squeeze into a wedding dress 2 sizes too small. And that is totally cool cos that means there's more left for you.

Good. Focus on participating in a group activity. Marriage is hard work. Develop skills that will help you with the give and take and compromise you’ll need to have a good one, as well as successful relationships while you’re single.
