Dear Abby,

I did something stupid, I got drunk the other night, text my ex-boyfriend, hooked up with him, and now he wants to get back together....I blame my phone. I do not want to be with him and now he claims that he has fallen in love all over again, what am I going to do?

Dear Drunk Dialer,

I think its safe to say we've all been there, Darius Rucker even wrote a song about your situation. We drink a little too much, become vulnerable, and before you know it, your ex is holdling you....HOW DID THIS HAPPEN?! RIGHT?! You might have to start a system where you are not aloud to bring your phone when you go out or maybe someone else has to hang on to it and you can only use it to call a RESPONSIBLE ride home. You and your phone are obviously not a good match when you drink, now on to your ex. Unfortunately, you do the crime, you pay the time. You're going to have to sit him down and explain to him your state and that your intentions were totally dishonorable. You're going to have to let him down gently, remember that he claims to have fallen for you, you don't want to hurt anymore than you have to.
