Could anybody correct my ideas to them?

Loving friends(right)
Loving husband(wrong)
Beloved friends (wrong)
Beloved husband(right)

I think so, because I think
loving=of little love, beloved=of deep love.
Could anybody help me with it?
Many thanks in advance.

Hey Vctory Ong I think you totally right about the word " beloved " that refers to a deep love by someone. Loving is considered as an adjective in the sentences you wrote above which means tender and affectionate ( showing love ) a Loving husband ( who shows love, tenderness and affection ) Beloved husband ( who's loved very much by someone ) One other point to be mentioned Beloved means ( loved very much ) , as a matter of fact the sentence ( Beloved friends ) is correct, because you could use the word ( beloved ) with anything that is loved very much by you. You could say He's always talking about his beloved computer Our beloved son.
