It's kind of like when you see some great jeans. They look beautiful hanging on the rack but when you try them on, they just don't feel right. You could buy them anyway, and you'd wear them, but they never would be comfortable.
Go to the party. Have fun. When friends ask you, just tell them that you guys decided to just be friends. It sounds like he just realized before you did (even though your instincts were telling you that something wasn't right) that you guys just don't fit. Handle yourself with calm composure. Another guy you're interested in may be at the party.
