What gain DF had by making up a lie about an affair is nothing. He was gambling his friendship because he had no idea how he'd react, so makes me think he didn't think too much of it in the first place. One thing to come clean on an affair, another entirely to make up a lie that could potentially destroy a friendship and serve no other purpose.
Sometimes there is no reason for what mean people do, and you can strain your brain trying to figure out why, they are not your worry any more. You both just need to let them go and work on rekindling things the way they were before the 1st revelation, or even better than that.
