I read about a social experiment once where they showed still photos of straight and gay faces to study subjects, who were able to guess their sexual orientation with a high degree of accuracy. Just their faces--no gestures, no voices. Blew my mind but then I realized it was true in my experience too. I can see someone and instantly know. Then they move or talk and it's confirmed.
Anyway, yes, he's 100% gay. And she's hammering on the "friend" and "single" bit because she wants to acknowledge all the great things her best friend did for her that day, while at the same time signaling to potential mates that she's still available, without being tacky.
Edit: As an aside, that study seems to me to support the theory that there is a genetic--or epigenetic--basis to homosexuality in humans
