There is an adage that states, 'The best things in life are free.' In my opinion, human relationships are the best thing in life. So, are relationships things?

Well, a "thing" is a noun. A noun is a person, place, thing, or idea. A relationship could be considered both a thing & an idea...I guess. And the dictionary refers to a relationship as being a noun I agree that a relationship would be one of the best things in life, & certainly should be free!
