If some ballads are love songs.
Some non ballads are non love songs
Love songs are not always ballads

I don't consider Think About Me a love song. Although it has classic Christine love obsession in it. She's happy with the state of her relationship. So maybe it is a love song.
well.... not entirely. It's kind of a classic Chris theme of being in a relationship with a man who isn't treating her as well as she deserves. And during the Tusk period that was definitely Dennis Wilson. He was a known cad, he was totally unfaithful to her (which she knew and put up with. I get he was very charming, and possible very good in bed but....), he mooched plenty of money off her (even that famous heart shaped garden he had dug in her backyard she paid for because he had the bill sent to her.. .. even though it only got half done), got wasted and trashed her house (stories of him and his buddies destroying antiques and chandeliers and things) trashed her vehicles (didn't he crash her Rolls?).

I don't hold you down
And maybe that's why you're around
But if I'm the one you love
Think about me
