I'd tell them straight, but I'd also try to be gentle about it. Something to the effect of ''I really value our friendship, but I'd like to keep it that way.'' Yes, your friend might be hurt -- but there's only so much you can do to ease that. In the scheme of things, being polite, kind but firm is much better for both of you. You've also got a decent chance of keeping the friendship going.
