The Art of the Drunk Dial


Drunk Dialing (DD) is one of those minefields you're eventually forced to cross in a relationship. If used properly, it can bring two people closer or bring us to the realization of incompatability. If used wrecklessly it can lead to an abrubt, unnessecary break-up or worse; a lingering, unfullfilled relationship. So I've come up with my own rules I try to live by in the DD arena.

1. Make sure you're drunk. Sober DDs don't help anyone--they sound too much like phone calls.

2. The puprose of the DD is to express your true feelings. So if it feels right, don't hold back.

3. Keep the DD positive. Remember it's a valve to release the pressure of how you're feeling about her without having a serious conversation.

3. When the other person answers, realizes and accepts all the parameters of the DD, don't be bashful. This is the Litmus test of compatibility. They're either going to fall madly for you, or cut you loose. Either way you win.

4. Be who you are. Somtimes we become who we think the other person wants us to be, instead of who we really are. Without honesty, the DD is just another line at the bar. So let the magic of the DD work for you.

5. Never DD from a church pew. Things tends to echo in there.

6. Never get drunk for the sole purpose of the DD. It becomes a forced issue and loses it's playfullness, and instead of reaching a new level in the relationship, you're left with a headache and an upset stomach..

7. Always remember to tell the DD recipient how much you wish they were there.

8. Don't make the DD while out with another girl. But never hesitate to DD her when you know she's out with another guy.

9. Never DD anyone while they're at work. Transpose your extension numbers and you may just end up telling Gladys in Accounting how smoking hot she totally is.

10. Most importantly, keep in mind that no matter what's said during DD, it can't be held against you. Since you were, after all, drunk.
