Hmmm. I am grateful for and appreciative of my friends, and they're not objects.

Your friends are non-corporeal? Are these imaginary friends?  Everything physical is an object.

But that’s as may be. I was using ‘object’ in the grammatical sense.  When you express thanks, you have to be thanking something.
