A "meeting" mindset implies equal footing and good intentions, which should be the foundation for any kind of positive human interaction.

Beware of 'should'. Subscribing to this ideal of equality rules out all sorts of positive human interactions that are not equal yet still beneficial. In fact, limiting oneself to human interactions on an equal footing would be outright socially crippling.
