встретить свою судьбу to meet one's predestined love Explanation: В данном контексте слово destiny or predestined не воспринимаются как несущие негативное значение, скорее fate будет таким негативным (прямо таки фатализм (от лат. роковой) какой-то получится :-) Because, of these compromises, we may never find our true predestined love. Although she was predestined to be his wife, he acted on impulse, and was unable to wait to take her until the time was ripe ... a friendship that will lead to a love connection predestined by God.
