You just cross paths now and then

You pass through school-first grade, second grade-there he is, going along with you. You're not friends, you're not enemies. You just cross paths now and then.

Hi,

Is it correct to take "cross paths" in the above as "come across each other?" Thanks.
  

Top answer

Exactly. While he is doing one thing and you are doing another -- or maybe even doing the same thing, but without planning to do it with him -- you encounter each other.
