Most people see the Friar as a meddler, and the semi- cause of Romeo and Juliets deaths, but truthfully, It was just an act of fate. The Friar was just trying to make peace and help R&J out.
As for your question the Friar was more like a mentor to Romeo, and you can tell because Romeo went to tell the Friar everything, and always asked him first.
Hope this helps!

Friar Lawrence entrusts Friar John with the important letter to Romeo, instructing him to deliver it to Romeo in Mantua. However, Friar John is unable to get the letter to Romeo in time due to being quarantined.
Friar Lawrence sent the note to Romeo on the same day of Juliet's supposed death.
Friar Lawrence sends a letter to Romeo, who is in Mantua, detailing his plan to fake the death of Juliet, and have Romeo bring her to Mantua where they can both live happily ever after. He gives the letter to Friar John, who is supposed to bring the letter to Romeo ASAP. Friar John never makes it to Romeo, because he was quarantined due to an outbreak of the Plague. Therefore, he brought the letter back to Friar Lawrence. This messed up Friar Lawrence' plan, as he had already set it in motion.
