If I understand you correctly, mentor is separated from her husband?
Maybe she’s scoping out your perspective out of self interest should she not reconcile with her husband? (I understand that there are differing views on her availability )

The fact that she is separated from her husband ought to disqualify her from being a mentor, but sadly, in the church these days, we see many older women, who in spite of Paul's admonition, are not really qualified to teach the younger women to obey their husbands.
So, I haven't talked to this girl Ell since late January. That was a full eight months ago. Except one time, when I brought in some flyers for a dance event that we were hosting to the restaurant she works at. That was about 5 minutes of chatting in May. During that brief encounter I apologized for my part in any confusion from that matter - this despite the fact .
Tonight a woman at one of my church meetings got terribly agitated and said she needs to talk to me. She was "trying not to gossip" but Ell told her and apparently a whole group of people that I am stalking her and that she is afraid of me.
She's also telling people that I was kicked out of my church for making moves on an 18-year-old at our old church. There is no 18-year-old at our old church. It's the old 70ish year old suicidal drug lady rearing up again. And Ell is apparently telling people that it's "another" 18-year-old and that she herself is only 18, but I don't think that it true. Her sister told my wife that Ell is 21.
I'm going to pray about it and talk to some wiser men, but my gut reaction is that it's time to send a cease and desist letter to her parent's address.
I’m flying Assumption Airlines here, so pray about whether or not this is accurate.
To me it’s obvious that she feels tension between the two of you. The question is why?
I believe that she may be feeling a pull towards you. She is fighting it because the idea is not popular with the people around her. So she is stirring up trouble to distance herself from you. A cease and desist will play into the distancing.
Not to get your hopes up, but just keep living your best life and see how it plays out. Possibilities exist.
Who knows, she could become your third wife ten years from now when other things don’t work out for her.
Job went through some stuff and his friends/ neighbors judged the daylights out of him. He stayed the course and was proven to be the righteous one in the end.
