Tell him you will be driving around that day with a pistol and a lot of cash daring someone to flip you off so you can shoot them.

I Introduced this guy on accident and he thinks he owes me. My wife and I were taking her friend out to dinner and I didn't want to be the third wheel and he had texted me that he was in town so I invited him to join so it wasn't me and 2 women blabbing about nothing. He thinks it was us arranging them to meet. It really wasn't, he doesn't owe me anything lol and I just dont want best man responsibilities for a wedding in new york, a wedding I probably wouldn't attend anyways.
If you don't get out of it. This is your best man speech.

ask him genuinely if he has any friends/brother that he is closer to and would feel slighted if they were not chosen. if he says yes, then encourage him to choose them and give it your blessing after convincing him it was his idea to choose them.
This is exactly what my mom did when her college roommate asked her to be her maid of honor. She said she was flattered, but thought that it wouldn't be fair to her friend's sister.
Her friend understood, my mom was in the wedding as a bridesmaid, and they are still good friends.

Is it possible you are his closest friend? Maybe he doesn't have many friends.

I've gone to plenty of weddings I didn't 'want to'. Just suck it up and do it, complaining here is pretty lame. I've been to multiple weddings where the dad was the best man, as said maybe he has a lot of friends but no great friends.
At the same time, if you don't know him just tell him you'd be honored to be a groomsmen but maybe another friend would better serve as the best man. Which you may honestly be the most responsible friend he has?

I read that you probably wouldn't go otherwise, but is your wife in the wedding?

Lie & say you have a previous commitment on that date or you can't get out of work etc.
Being in a wedding nowadays sucks b/c no one pays for the groomsmen or bridesmaids expenses anymore. They expect you to foot the bill for airfare, hotel, tux & dresses etc. My mother said in their day, the bride's family covered all of that. Being in someone's wedding shouldn't be a financial obligation.

What would you do to not ruin the friendship but politely say "no"
Ask him for his credit card number so you can go ahead and book your flight and hotel. If he says no, you're off the hook. If he gives it to you, you should be his best man.
