Friar Lawrence is a coward. He justifies marrying Romeo to Juliet by imagining that the warring families will be reconciled when they find out, but is too frightened to tell them. He gets Juliet to try a desperate scheme involving her faking her own death, but when she really needs her help, he runs off and leaves her alone with her husband's corpse, because he is afraid to be there when the police arrive, because he is afraid of explaining himself. He's the worst kind of coward.

To see Rosaline, her sister. Mercutio and Benvolio NEVER knew about Juliet. Only Balthasar and Friar Lawrence knew. And both of them were sworn to secrecy.
