Is he a friend that you want to keep or just some random that you would really like to go away? either way you really have to be very clear to him where you stand, and be careful not to do anything that could be considered leading him on. In many ways it is alot harder if they are a friend as you may have to be very unfriendlike to him, even avoiding him for a while. I know this sounds harsh and it is, but it has happened to me before, and in retrospect I think she did the best thing for all concerned.
If they are a friend however then you need to be sure of their motives. They could think you are in a bad relationship that you would be better out of, even if you don't.
If its a random things are a bit easier, just get a big rugby friend to say a quiet word to him.
