The most accurate answer to this question is that it depends on what you mean by the word "you".

You see, the "you" concept is not very clear-cut. There are an infinite number of ways to see "you".

In some models of reality, there is only one person around - you. And everything and everyone else is a manifestation of your thought. Therefore it is meaningless to speak of "other people's intentions".

In other models of reality, there are "others", but if they are in your environment, they were drawn there by your own thoughts. And if what they think, say and do affects your intentions, then those effects are created by yourself, on yourself, too.

etc etc.
