Humor aside, you are definitely belittling the idea that you didn't/don't have a serious involvement with your ex T. You compare it to your wife and some trivial aspects of relationships--sitting together, dining, and sleeping. What about love, mutual emotional support, sex.....? Your non-random comparisons is ex-T = girlfriend/wife. Off-the-cuff as it is, it’s a striking few sentences.

You get into interesting territory here for me--someone with a bit of an education in political economy.
It depends of what theory of value you apply to the situation. E.g. , the labor theory of value.
In terms of opportunity costs and a market theory of value, the value she gives you is the value she would get from seeing a patient paying $150 in full--a hypothetical patient who she could be seeing in place of you.
