I got the same vibe as well esp when they focused on her holding his hand. But mostly it was like respecting & admiring each other now as equals etc. Did make me wonder if Sansa will end up with anyone...Tyrion?

You're reading way too much into what you saw in that scene.

She also touched the hand of DANY in the same way (which was as a GESTURE of FRIENDSHIP).

And The GESTURE was to let him know that she appreciated the way he said he would have PROTECTED HER if he'd been there, and said he'd never have let what happened to her happen.

Then she also told him that if it had NOT happened to her, she wouldn't have become as WISE as she was now.

I agree with you and the OP, except that I don't think it was simply a gesture of friendship nor romantic interest. It seemed to me it started as a way to communicate empathy, which he rebuffed by saying he had heard she was "broken in rough". This was a harsh rebuke of her interest in befriending him. Next it seemed he genuinely mourned the loss of "little bird" and confessed his part as a way to protect his own vulnerability. She then rebuffed him. Then, after a curt reply, literally rose from his level, once again separating their stature and status.

The interaction started as empathy, morphed quickly through a terse powerplay, and ended with two people separated yet again. That's the beauty of these scenes, we can read different things into them based on what we know/believe of the characters, and indeed what we bring to the scene from our own experience/attitudes. All that said, I thought it was quite significant on it's own standing, and was certainly more than "nothing." :)
