The underlying principle of any visa application is to tell the truth. Itβs not a good idea to understate the intended duration of your stay to enhance your chances of getting a visa. 4-25 June is 21 days, 4 June to 13 August is 71 days, which is a significant increase and could affect any future applications. UK visitor visa refused due to previously staying for too long and not having strong ties. How should I reapply? Also, stating that you will be staying with a friend (and having her sponsor that) when in fact you intend to stay with your boyfriend is not truthful. I would include evidence and explanation of property ownership in Indonesia to demonstrate a financial tie to your home country and strengthen the case that you will return there.

I think it's a bad idea to make dummy hotel bookings when you actually plan to stay with friends.
In general your application looks good: you have genuine reasons to visit, a history of complying without your previous visa, a reasonable amount of money to fund your stay (more so if you stay with friends, which will cost less than hotels).
It may go against you that you are visiting your boyfriend. Some couples decide they don't want to be apart and so over stay their visas.
