Dear Tim:

When your friends and later, sister in law told you that S is interested in you, they were wrong. She was not. Maybe they said what  they said so to make  you feel better, and  maybe they heard one thing you shared and came to a rush conclusion, no solid basis to it.

You wrote toward the  end of  your post: “I want to ask her how she feels and what her intentions are just so I know what  to do”-  excellent idea. S is the source of information regarding her feelings and her intentions.  Do  ask her and if  she  is  honest with you, she will tell you the truth.

Better not make assumptions and not listen to the assumptions others make, others who don’t know her, never communicated with her.
