Um, if you actually hold the views of solipsism, then there are no other people and thus they are not verifying your way of thinking. In fact, one of the most interesting things about solipsism is that you can explain a conversation like this as you creating for "us" an "understanding" of your situation in order to support your own world view.

There's some irony in there somewhere, but I've lost track of it.
