Best Answer

When meeting someone for the first time, we commonly say:

"(I'm) pleased to meet you" or "It's nice to meet you" (when being introduced)

and "I'm pleased to have met you" or "It was nice to meet you" or "It was nice meeting you" (on departing)

In the situation you describe:

you feel lucky to know him/her because you think you will get well with him/her in the future and help each other.

I would say "I'm really pleased we met" or "I'm so glad we met" and might also add "I look forward to seeing you again/getting to know you better/working with you"

You would only say: "I am so lucky to have met you", if someone had just saved your life or given you a million dollars, or something similar - it's a statement of fact.

"I feel so lucky to have met you" would be acceptable to express a very strong feeling, but again implies that the other person is going to do something amazing for you.
