Judging by the link in your name, you logged into a phishing site and allowed someone to redirect your trade to another account.

DO NOT TRADE (if you have done already then RIP items)

but its the thing ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ is a trusted site that many youtubers use and i have done this like trades before but not happening like this

the site is h.e.l.l.c.a.s.e i put it in between dots cuz it would censor it

It's censored for a reason. They're all scams, and they pay Youtubers to advertise for them, that doesn't mean they can be trusted.

Check the account you traded to again. It's a different account, impersonating your friend.

Most likely, same name, same avatar as the friend to be traded with.

Trade history is what you need to check. Then you will see that the account to be traded with is different compared to your friend.

The trade will have happened with someone NOT on your friend's list because your account is half-hijacked and a bot has semi-control over your trades.

It's fine if you rather not believe this and continue having account problems, that's you're choice.

Those trading "case" sites are all scams. They do not scam ALL people ALL the time, that would give them away as totally unsafe immediately. So some people actually get the items they trade for and are not scammed... and then others get unlucky and are scammed.

It's like someone who steals cars in real life doesn't steal EVERY CAR THEY SEE.. that would give them away too obviously as a car thief. And the defense of "Bob can't be a car thief because i left my car around him and he never stole it." is dumb.

Anyways you should do the account security measures mentioned to you above in post 1.

And also you should check your trade history as Valium said.

It's probably just some random dude user with the same avatar and name, check it again, it wasn't your friend you traded with, otherwise he would have the item you send.
