Gay friend has a crush on me. Any advice?

I've known this guy since grade school, and I never really spoke with him that much, but today, he revealed that back in high school, he's had a huge crush on me, and is being very flirtatious and such............which is extremely awkward and embarrassing.

Don't get me wrong, I completely support LGBT rights and such, but I'm just not one of them myself.

He's a nice guy and all, but I just don't feel that way towards men, only towards women.

Anyone have any advice for me?

Just be honest with him. Say, "I've noticed you've been flirting with me. I'm really flattered by that, but it makes me uncomfortable. I'm just not that way. I'm totally heterosexual. I still wanna be friends, but I don't want that awkwardness when you flirt. I'm sorry if this hurts your feelings, but I value your friendship and I want to be honest with you."
