I think you are confusing logic with definitions, tbh. Since emotions lead to behaviors of avoidance or seeking, then you can see implied evaluations there. I love someone, I'm drawn to them, maybe procreate at some point. I've evaluated that person as lovable, and without the emotion of love, I couldn't do that. That's straight forward enough. It's so obvious, though, as to be almost unworth mentioning, or entrenching it as a philosophical meme.
Now, I don't want to be insulting, but if you are OCD / autistic, it may be that your feelings and motivations are a little different than mine, so what for me seems straight forward might for you be an important point to grasp. And certainly, it's possible that if you do think differently than the majority, you may see something we can't.
But based on the words you're saying, I really think you are weaving words together which are just different permeations of definition, and are not in fact stating a logical conclusion or even a new idea.
