Ouch
Umm
You might not have to say anything tbh, he might already have the message. If things are awkward though...
I guess just try to explain yourself as best you can. It's an innocent thing, I guess he might be a little upset about it but only so much upset is justified. I'd just apologise and try to explain things from your perspective, then it's on him.
If he's really into you and really down about it, he might not want to talk anymore, in which case it's best to give him his space.
Don't feel too guilty though, it happens. All the time actually with gay/bi men, not sure about straight people.

"Ironically like the nativist far-Right, which despises multiculturalism, but benefits from its ideas of difference to scapegoat the other and to promote its own white identity politics; these postmodernists, leftists, feminists and liberals also use multiculturalism, to side with the oppressor, by demanding respect and tolerance for oppression characterised as 'difference', no matter how intolerable." - Maryam Namazie
