What’s the difference between
“ I want to meet you”

I googled that for you!
Use MEET for the first time you see someone or when you are seeing them because you have plans or an appointment. Use SEE for all other situations. Consider this scenario: Sandra and I grew up together, but I hadn't seen her in years.
