Which statement is a classic example of Destiny Beliefs about relationships?

• A. They are meant to be
• B. Love conquers all
• C. Two romantic partners are soulmates and will live happily ever after
• D. Love as a feeling can weather any challenge

Answer: (A)

Destiny beliefs about relationships hold that some partnerships are fated or meant to be, as if fate guides who ends up together. The statement “They are meant to be” directly asserts that a relationship is destined, capturing that fate-driven view in its clearest form. It emphasizes predestination over effort, suggesting the match is supposed to occur regardless of actions taken.

The other statements focus on different ideas. “Love conquers all” highlights the power of love to overcome obstacles, not any preordained destiny. “Two romantic partners are soulmates and will live happily ever after” leans into a soulmate concept and a guaranteed lifelong happiness, which still touches destiny but adds a specific nuance that isn’t the quintessential predestination claim. “Love as a feeling can weather any challenge” centers on the resilience of love rather than whether the relationship is fated.
