Mention it to her, don't mention it to her, think of an experimental test for the hypothesis, etc. Then pick one. Otherwise... Worrying is of course useless if it isn't motivating a useful action, so attempt not to.
Yes, an experimental test is just what I want to create. That should be the useful action motivating my question.
I understand that not discounting for egocentric bias is a form of reduced Pascal's wager: the small chance of a correlation of her behaviour with me specifically has a huge payoff, so I better devote careful effort to discern the probability of this being the case.
However, if the pattern continues, I think that the correlation becomes more and more probable.
I still think that people worry about what other people think of them more than is healthy, which is why I think the egocentric bias fix is important. If you can think of a test, try it if it worries you, but... Well, I don't know. Perhaps I'm Other-Optimising too much.
