I wish I had the info to back me up on this, since I saw this on PBS a
couple of years ago, but since we do know what neurochemicals creat the
feelings of love, an fMRI should be able to identify when he feeling
"love" if done while he had the feeling. Im sure this technique is noe
exacting, but it does still work at imaging brain activity. So, it seems
we could objectify love in this respect. The feeling has measurable
chemical markers.

However, I for one am not willing to pay for this experiment. I bet it
would be a pricey way to find out if Wade loves me or not ;}haha
