It is saying you've met someone who can level with you, or do better. It could be agressive I suppose. Sometimes football commentators use a sentence like this to indicate a tough defender like Materazzi comes up against an equally ruthless attacker like Van Nistelrooij. Both would have met their match, and either of them might be out of the match soon. But it could also apply to entirely different fields. I've met mine in moe than one field. Have you?

I would say not hostile. Example; if you play "nasty" tricks on ppl for no obvious reason, and then a "nasty" trick gets pulled over on you, also for no apparent reason OR .. you spread gossip then learn someone is, or has been, gossiping about you. It would be safe to say that you have met your match.

They are having some good sex together and they get alone. Wait till the fighting starts and I hope it never does but, then ask that person if that was his or her match.

it means you met the person who has all the qualities you expected in a person and they feel the same about you.

Thus far, my perfect match.
What began as hostility has changed, beyond all recognition...
