Friar Lawrence thinks that Romeo has been with Rosaline instead of with Juliet because he doesn't know yet that Romeo has fallen for Juliet and does not love Rosaline any more. Romeo and Rosaline used to be lovers, but now that Romeo has met Juliet, he doen't love Rosaline any longer. Therefore, he assumes that Romeo has been with Rosaline for the night because he doesn't know that they are not in love any more.
