How do I apologize to someone I lied to?

I'm not gay or trans I am a woman born woman just to let y'all know...

There is a guy that I was talking to a while ago (as in a few months ago) he is Christan and said he liked me but we never actually dated. I was Christian still and at the time we talked as friends. Then one day I said I was part of lgtb and was gay but I didn't actually mean I was. Once he found out I said it, he blocked me and avoided talking to me in person. I tried apologizing to him and telling him the truth but he said he doesn't want to be friends anymore and was talking pretty mad at me. He said he thinks I was playing him and I was gay the whole time and just using him for attention or pleasure. I was also hanging out with non Christian friends. And tbh the reason I said I was gay or bisexual was for attention. I was also confused of if I am or not gay. I also told him that and I know that it is a sin in the bible. I think he may be mad for not telling him in the way he would understand. I told him I wasn't ready for dating at that moment since i believed dating is for marriage in Christianity and he said he understood but still thinks I was using him. And since from the beginning of our friendship which was about 8 months ago he now thinks I was lying to him the whole time we were friends about every single thing I said just because everybody thinks Im gay because on pride month i wore the flag and it usually means you are serious about being gay and it was on pride month. But i wasn't lying to him the whole time and I think might have said my apology wrong because it was a long paragraph by text and not spoken in real life or by phone. But I don't know how to apologize to him now since we can't see eachother. I just want to let him know the truth showing with honesty:(
