the different perspective about love

i was flipping thru the tv channels yesterday coz i was too damn bored after my homecoming from penang and a small part of a drama captured my attention.. I was watching the part where the lady made her decision to break off her r/ship with her fiance , who happened to be a rich n famous lawyer, all bcoz he was about to lose his everything-from fame to reputation..

Most might think that the lady was jus being too materialistic.Or at least, she's being portrayed as one of the antagonist characters in the show..But no, it wasn't bcoz she didnt love her fiance anymore, neither did she get close to him solely for the sake of wealth..
In the show, she said these words to another lady,
" I was attracted to A(her fiance) in the first place bcoz of his character, his successful high paid career, his high reputation n how he does justice to his clients.. u might think i'm just someone chasing over material things and that i'm being cruel to him, as a matter of fact..i'm not. I love him for who he is-a complete package. And it was this package that he has which i c myself spending the rest of my life with..now if he were to lose everything that i like in him - his career, wealth and fame.. he's not the "him" whom i like anymore-so what's the point......?"

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

What the lady said impressed me and those words left me into thinking.. She was not wrong, but it wasn't completely true either. No doubt in the real world,everyone has a pinch of materialistic in them- let's face it..noone lives without money..u can't survive solely out of each other's love.Money is important but nevertheless, it is not everything.It's jus the key to our survivals.yes, we are THAT realistic. So how do u classify someone as materialistic in this sense? ..
