Interview/work, during introduction, place of worship, at family reunion, first date.
Another Answer:
It depends on the particular circumstances, the connection the two of you might have, and the comfort level of both. Yes, a handshake is less intimate and more formal, and it tends to be appropriate during interview/work, introductions, and first dates. It works also for places of worship, but there are degrees of connectedness that exist. (In my case, some exchange a hug and kiss, others a handshake, others just a recognition. It depends on the individuals, and it is something that you learn to judge.)I disagree on the point of family renuion, because you are talking family. I would never shake my mother's hand, I would hug her and kiss her. Again, It depends on how well you know the other person. In any case, both should be sensitive to the other's comfort level and not do anything that would make them feel uncomfortable.
