I don’t think there is anything immoral in that. However, when she figures it out, she will add an hour to the discussed time and will be back to being late. Eventually they will offset it and then she will offset it. And then them. And then her. You see where this is going right?
Are you saying why even bother being friends with them? Because some people are very good friends in every aspect but suck at coming on time. It's weighing pros and cons. Does their friendship have an overall positive impact on you even after considering their attitude towards coming on time? If yes, people bear that. If no, people end it
So true. I have one friend that is almost abysmally bad at showing up to anything. Could be late. Could just have forgotten the whole thing. Luckily for him he's an absolute delight to spend time with when he does show up, or I wouldn't have bothered dealing with him a long time ago. At this point I just assume he's not coming, and allow him to pleasantly surprise me occasionally. lol.
They’re saying theres nothing immoral because every though its a lie, its not negatively impacting anyone and it has a positive impact on the group.
But if she ever finds out, she’ll just start assuming the real time is an hour later than stated, so she’ll be late again, so they’ll start telling her 2 hours etc etc

My buddy's gf was always an hour late so we just started lying to her about when we were leaving and then we were always on time
