If a couple "break up," they separate and often no longer see each other. When you first met her, did you believe she was the only person for you, and in some mystical, cosmic way, it was fated? Both "mystical" and "cosmic" are powerful adjectives that refer to the nature or energy of the entire universe, or perhaps of a supernatural force.
