One night, about ten years ago, I was staying the night at a friends house and she decided to play with the ouija board pretty late. I'm an 'early bird' so I was more than tired but I agreed to anyway.
I don't really remember what was said but she swears that everything she asked that had been answered came true. She gets really excited when she thinks about it & at the time, she was so obsessed with it, her mom threw it away; my friend dug it out of the trash so her mom burned it. Therefore, I don't think she was moving it.
I don't remember what I asked but since I have been completely unaware of some events and one question I do remember (how old will I be when I get married?:A-27, not at all true), I don't think anything it 'predicted' for me happened.
She's not very religious-I think she thinks there's a God but she disagrees with a lot in the Bible but doesn't seem to think about religion much. Just kind of goes along with the status quo.

Perhaps your friend has a selective memory. In other words, maybe she has forgotten the predictions that haven't come true at all, remembered the ones that did come true, and misremembered the details of the predictions which came partially true.

Ouija boards are bull****
Of course everything she said came true, she moved the pointer with her hands.
There have been experiments done where they had people use a Ouija board, then they blindfolded them and without their knowledge, flipped the board 180 degrees. The blindfolded folks then moved the pointer to where they though the words Yes was but it wasn't there anymore.

She's just telling you that all that stuff came true. You can't be sure. I don't think Ouija boards are "of the devil", but I think most of that stuff especially when performed by kids is BS because the kids can't help but move the thing themselves. It's just for fun. No demons will be summoned.

Your friend may be lying, simple as that. Or she may be remembering selectively.
The ouija board isn't really a tool of fortunetelling; it's a tool for communicating with the dead. So perhaps the spirit that showed up was a relative of hers, or maybe they just weren't that into you.....
Of the two, I suspect my first answer is correct. Because my second one is just me talking out my ***.

if you believe the bible then you know about evil spirits so that could be your answer maybe your friend has a evil spirit at her home and if you believe the bible then you also know that you should not be practicing magic or any form of spiritism as it is something God hates that includes this game and horoscopes and spell books, you should be glad that nothing worked at your house because when you invite evil spirits in to your home they have a tendency to want to stay and they are not always so passive or nice they want to control you read Deuteronomy 18:10-13 and Mark 5:1-13 in your bible and share with your friend

Well, you and your friend should stop using the Ouija board because it is bad news. Using it is just like opening your self up for all kinds of demons to enter your spirit. When/if those demons enter your spirit you will have to try to get them out and when/if you do get them out there will still be an empty place which will have to be replaced or the demons will come back. they have to be replaced with God.

She may not have been moving it consciously. I wouldn't accept her "Everything came true" since for one she didn't write down her questions or the answers. Some people are just so into getting "higher" advice they make stuff up.

Don't mess with ouija boards. It's like tuning into a random radio station. You have NO idea what is on the other end. Or what you might inadvertantly invite into your home.
I highly recommend you read Ralph Sarcchie's book "Beware the Night" for more info.

She was moving it. I don't understand why you think that just because she dug it out of the trash when it was thrown away, she wasn't moving it. I don't see the connection.
