The contour lines having the same elevation cannot unite and continue as one line.
A contour can not end abruptly, but must ultimately close itself not necessarily within the limits of the map.
The direction of steepest slope at a point on a contour is at right angles to the contour.

Contours of different elevations cannot unite but contours of same elevations can unite to form single contour.

They seem to meet because 2D representation cannot reproduce two or more stack curve separately. They cannot meet each other. They only stack.
