This is pretty deep question, and one that only God knows the full answer to…
We can’t be certain how long, in our concept of time, Adam and Eve lived prior to the fall. Perhaps they existed hundreds or thousands of years, or perhaps it was only a few days; the bottom line is that they DID fall from grace by choice. And we must believe that it was all part of God’s plan to provide all of humankind the opportunity to be realize that we are nothing without Him, and to allow us to be humbly redeemed, and thus ultimately draw closer to Him.
God desires us to use our free will to see Him…else He would have created robots to worship Him. Therein lies the power of love: that we may grow to love and serve Him because we have faith that He is our Good and True Creator, And Savior, not because we are ‘forced’ into relationship with Him.
Anyway, there isn’t enough room on this forum to ‘solve’ the question you have posed. But I find that The Catholic Church’s explanation of God as a “Gentleman Lover” suits me just fine to provide the most basic of answers as to WHY He allowed Adam and Eve to fall into sin. He loves us so much that He calls out to us constantly, but never forces Himself upon us.
(Don’t know if that provides the answer you are seeking, but it’s all I’ve got right now)
Peace in Christ
