Note that it is the king he wants to see, not Macbeth. When Macbeth is named king, Macduff refuses to attend the coronation. He also refuses to come to Lady Macbeth's dinner party. It would appear that he never liked Macbeth much.
Everyone was Duncan's friend, even the Macbeths at the beginning, excepting for the Thane of Cawdor and Macdonweald who had allied themselves with the Norwegians. The loss of Duncan's friendship was a powerful motive for Macbeth to abandon the murder plan. Unfortunately he was given stronger ones to continue with it.

Macduff deliberately did not attend the coronation of Macbeth, as he suspected Macbeth of foul play in becoming king and did not support his rule. Macduff's absence raised suspicion and tension between himself and Macbeth, ultimately leading to conflict and Macduff's involvement in overthrowing Macbeth.
Macbeth is Macduff's enemy. The three witches told Macbeth to beware of Macduff, and Macbeth responded by ordering the deaths of Macduff and all the members of his household.
