You, the person I’m talking to are so vain to think I’m talking to you.

Believing something like that without evidence, even if it's true, is crazy. That's what that line is about. It doesn't matter that the song actually is about them. The fact that they can believe it among all the other possibilities is why they're vain.

That's still a bit silly, given that the rest of the lyrics imply that they have history together. If I assumed that Alanis Morissette was singing about me, that would be absurdly vain, but Alanis Morissette's ex assuming that is much more reasonable.

Someone I had a history with once posted something long on Facebook that I thought was about me. It wasn't remotely.
