[Star Trek] When I enter the Mirror Universe, am I always destined to meet my counterparts and the counterparts of the my crewmates? Isn't it possible to enter the Mirror Universe and not bump into anyone I know from the Prime Universe?

No, you are not destined.

* Neither Kirk, Spock, nor McCoy met their own doubles.

* Bashir never met his own double.

* Sisko never met his own double.

* Jake didn't have a double.

* Quark and Rom didn't meet their own doubles (their doubles having died already).

In fact, only really Kira met and interacted with her own double.

In crossing over into our universe, Smiley didn't meet his double, nor did Bareil (Our Bareil having died already).
