No. Love tends to be defined as an intense desire or need. That sounds like an unhealthy addiction to me.

But luckily a non-existent (according to you) unhealthy addiction. So no problem then.

How much do you value your computer? The amount of money you would be willing to sell it for.
How much do you love your loved one? The amount of money you would be willing to give him/her up for.
Simple.

Such a Material Girl.

It is a non-existent kind of thing that exists. 🙂

Well presumably everything can also be measured in less material terms.
How many strangers lives would you sacrifice for your loved one?
How many strangers lives would you sacrifice for a place in heaven?
How many loved ones lives would you sacrifice for your own?
etc

But ultimately money can be used to gain many not so-material benefits and can be used to measure how much material value we put on non-material things.
