the one that got away
He took so long to make up his mind about his first really serious girlfriend that she married someone else. He thought of her now, a little ruefully, as the one that got away — Он так долго не мог решиться жениться на ней, что она вышла замуж за другого. Сейчас он с сожалением думает, какую чудесную девушку он проворонил
Ah well, you can’t win them all, you can win most of them but there will always be the one that got away, it’s like in fishing — Всех не перетрахаешь. Большинство из них клюют на это дело, но обязательно найдется одна такая, которая сорвется с крючка, как на рыбалке

How to use «Took away» in context?
When I was a kid, I would always love going to my grandma’s house. I loved how she always had so much candy and would give me extra just because I was her favorite. Even though I always felt really bad about taking away from her, I still loved going there. Now that I am an adult and can afford my own place, I don’t always have time to go to my grandma’s house. I miss her cooking, her hugs, and her sugar-laden cookies, but I also miss not having to worry about taking away from her.
