travelling again after secondary inspection

hi, in march 2026 i came to the us with an ESTA for vacation and visiting friends. i didn’t lie when i was at the cbp i said exactly this, that imma stay at their house i have their address and phone number etc.
but he send me into secondary inspection.
and they went through my phone.
they discovered that one of my friend was undocumented. he was almost my boyfriend at this time.
at the end they let me enter the country but i was so scared they won’t let me enter.
i stayed 6 weeks i did not overstayed i came back in my country with the same date it was on my return flight ticket.
so now it’s been 2 weeks that i’m back in my country but i have one week vacation with my job i wanna go to los angeles (it’s one of my dream) but i’m scared to pass again the cbp and i wanna go to los angeles around July 19th but it will be almost 3 months since the last time i came and i’m scared they won’t let me enter but i will have an hotel, i’m planning to go visiting universal studios, disney, hollywood etc so it’s a legit trip but since what happened the first time, i don’t know what’s gonna happen
and my ESTA is still accepted so i think it will be good but it’s because the gap between the trips is only 3 months but i have a job in france and i go to university in september

hi i came to the us last month and i had a secondary inspection, they went through my phone and saw that my boyfriend didn’t have any statut in the us, at the end of the inspection they said « so you want us to let you enter in the country seeing your illegal boyfriend » and they let me enter. my question is that in july i have a trip in new york planned and i’m scared they won’t let me enter or they will see what happened last time and i will only stay for 4 days in new york. does anyone has a similar experience ?
