I don't think you're wrong for reading it that way, though that's not an interpretation I get

I feel like "India" is like a placeholder for wherever they might be leaving for, (I think she even says that she'll just tell people that her other half is off in India doing whatever)
idk I'm not usually into literally reading lyrics but I just love how vaguely specific her lyricism is, last time I got this swept up in a lyricist was Alanis Morissette with SFIJ

Yeah I don't generally read lyrics much either, I just feel them out I suppose. My interpretation of the song is that she basically wants a simple love, but is ultimately too picky and relationships are too complicated for her. The stranger in India represents that simple love, her "fiancee met cherry picking", that she feel she deserves, but to whom she hasn't "written back" because she's busy doing "bad shit", because everything is so "expensive"... basically in the future when she is ready.
Idk, really reaching here lol

Saw these guys last night and that song was pure fire when they played it. Always seen the lyrics as her making up an imaginary supercool partner to fill in for a real one she's just broken up with, like she wants to believe that she's somehow superior and deserving only of the best as far as love is concerned (so above that mundane law-of-average approach she takes the piss out of in the first verse), but she eventually comes round to facing up to her selfishness and haughtiness and addressing her real ex increasingly throughout the song as if to say 'hey I'm no different after all' - it's all in the shift from the "Nobody deserves you the way that I do" bridge to the "My love is average" bridge, where she comes down off her high horse. It's a smart piece and v well pulled off whichever way you read it
