He just walked into my room like it was nothing

Didn't know where to post this so sorry if it doesn't fit, but it really bothered me and I just want to vent.

I stayed with a good friend last weekend. She is an amazing friend but maybe too trusting at times. Anyway, she said on Friday that another friend of hers would stay over that night and just crashing as he needed a place to stay and would be off again in the morning. I didn't like the idea initially because he is a stranger to me but he literally just arrived dinner time, we got on really well and went to bed at a reasonable enough hour.

Maybe 10 mins after I'd gone to bed he came to my room and quite clearly came on to me. Now we had gotten on well that evening but at no point had I been flirting with him at all (at least I don't think I did!). He didn't touch or corner me to be fair but it was still really unsettling and I felt really uneasy at night and pushed my bags against the door.

I told my friend the day after and she seemed confused and uncomfortable but it made me feel like she was trying to imply that I had misinterpreted what he had said.

The whole thing made me so uneasy. First of all his completely inappropriate behavior of coming into my room. Then the fact that he has a key to my friend's place where she lives on her own with her daughter. And her weird reaction which seemed like she was trying to brush it off. I get that they are friends but if a friend of mine had done this I'd be furious at least. He was gone the next day but apparently was back while we were out and she seemed happy that he had sorted some of her housework for her. I think it's been the most uncomfortable stay I have had in a long time!

What people expect you to do is talk to your friend about how this guy immediately broke social boundaries with you and you're concerned how he's behaving with her in her home. He's pushed past normal "friend" boundaries, he comes off as a creep, and you're worried. You have concerns to share with her and one is how she's given him open access to her home with a child there.

You were spending the night for a planned girls' night catchup and here she lets some complete stranger to you barge in on that and use her house for a place to stay and then he comes into your bedroom to hit you up for sex. That's pretty brazen behaviour. This guy is flying serious red flags.
If I were you, I would ask her about doing a Claire's Law request on him, since she's given him a key.

Edited

Claire Law is a good idea.
