Why doesn't Friar Laurence stay in the tomb with Juliet after she awakens?
(Act 5, Scene 3) "Come, come away. Thy husband in thy bosom there lies dead; and Paris too. Come, I'll dispose of thee among a sisterhood of nuns. Stay not to question, for the watch is coming. Come, go, good Juliet. I dare no longer stay."The Friar doesn't want to be accused of the killing of Romeo or Paris, and later Juliet.

Why does the friar go to Juliet's tomb?
The Friar goes to Juliet's tomb to retrieve her, after being informed that Romeo never got the letter telling him to fetch Juliet.

What was the cause of friar Lawrence arriving too late to save romeo and Juliet?

Why would the friar endanger himself to help Romeo and Juliet be together?
He wouldn't. He does not put himself in any danger by helping Romeo and Juliet, because he makes sure that nobody knows about it. Even when he is called upon to marry Juliet to Paris, he still does not stay anything, even though he cannot perform the marriage without being an accessory to bigamy. Fortunately Juliet gives him an out by agreeing to fake her death, so that nobody need know about the friar's involvement. We see the friar's cowardice in the last scene. He says to Juliet, "Stay not to question, for the watch is coming. Come, go, good Juliet. I dare no longer stay." If he is found there he will be obliged to make some explanation. Juliet replies, "Go, get thee hence, for I will not away." And he does. To save himself, he abandons a teenage girl in a suicidal mood, and lets her die.

Explain what Juliet is prepared to do in order to escape marrying Paris?
Juliet first tells Paris she is going to marry him. Then the night before the wedding day she drinks a potion that she got from Friar Laurence, as Friar Laurence decides to help her be with Romeo. (He decides to help only because it would be a sin to marry Juliet to two people.) Anyways, the potion is suppose to make her seem dead. Then there is a above ground tomb where all the Capulets are barried and she will be barried there. She is willing to stay in there for a long time until the potion wears out. As she stays in there Friar Laurence is to tell Romeo about everything that happened so Romeo could rescue her.
Is the nurse or friar Lawrence more trustworthy in Romeo and Julet?
Neither is very trustworthy, for different reasons. The Nurse cannot be trusted because she does not have scruples, and will go for the main chance whatever the moral considerations involved. While on the one hand, this allows her to be complicit in Juliet's secret wedding and subsequent loss of virginity, it also means that she has no compunction about counselling Juliet to commit bigamy when it appears convenient. Friar Lawrence, on the other hand, cannot be trusted because he lacks both common sense and courage. His scheme to get Juliet to Romeo is overcomplicated. All he had to do was insist that he stay with Juliet's corpse night and day until she waked and he would have saved both lovers. Common sense should indicate that sending a message to Romeo was very important, and the surest way to do so was not through Friar John, but through one of Romeo's friends, especially his man Balthasar. But all could have been saved if Friar Lawrence had had any courage--most of all the courage to forbid the wedding of Juliet and Paris right off the hop, but also the courage to stay by Juliet both before and after she waked, or the courage to take some action himself to get Juliet to Romeo. (Why didn't he just dress her up as a nun and take her to Mantua without all this death business?)
