I'm trying to understand it as best as someone like me can, too.
What are my intentions? Well, usually utilitarian - much of my interaction is purely transactional. We need to exchange information, in order for tasks to be done. In that sense I intend to be as efficient and clear as I can be.
In the few personal interactions I have - my intentions are often to be as minimally damaging as possible, or to be helpful or useful in some way, so others can benefit from me being there.
