Help!!! My best guy friend is in love with me!!!?

ok my best guy friend basically admitted yesterday he's in love with me. We have only known eachother for a few months but we have a really strong connection he's like a brother to me. I don't love him the way he loves me I love him like a brother and he even admitted if he had to choose between me and his girlfriend he would pick me, he loves me more than her. I could tell he liked me by the way he liked me by the way he hugged me and put his arm around me and walked with me and I could tell he was jealous and upset when one of my guy friends ran up and hugged me when we were talking. He even did the innapropriate hug where you grab someone by the waist and pull your waist towards their wasit and put your forheads agains eachother and look into eachother's eyes. I thought he was just flirting and playing around but it was more than that. Now things are really awkward between us because he admitted he's in love with me but I'm not in love with him he's brotherly to me. And the only reason we're not going out is because we live too far away form eachother. Is there anyway I can fix this between us? I always want to be friends with him help!
