   H F
    l  l
Cl-C-C-Cl
    l  l
   H F

Why there is 3 JH-F value?How come there is 3 couplings?

It should be a triplet.  Just one coupling constant.

I only know there is two H - F interaction, but why there is 3 J H-F value?

F behaves just like H would, in terms of signal multiplicity.  If you had a -CH2CH2- unit, you would expect to see triplets, right?  Same thing with an F2.

The should only be one JH-F value, as there is for any triplet.
