Why do I have to request to join friends open lobby but they can just join mine no problem?

    They might be joining through Steam's friend list rather than in-game. In-game makes you request, while Steam lets you join directly.

    Which platform are you playing on?

    I don't know how it works on consoles, but on Steam your friends can join your lobby without asking if they join through the Steam friends list instead of through the in-game one, just by right-clicking your name and pressing "Join Game".

    On console, you can join without asking through party.
