I have already apologized, but nothing seems to work. I feel terrible and embarrassed, and I fear that he's spread this around work. I asked him what I said, and he said he doesn't want to talk about it...

I called him at least once and then text-messaged him 8 times. I do have kind of a crush on him, and I was very sad that he had gone home early...Oh, and I'm married...I kept telling people that I liked him and that I wished he would come back to the bar. He texted back in ALL CAPS to stop messaging him. When I realized he was mad at me, I just kept trying to fix it all night by texting him even more! I am horrified.

Drop the issue. Obviously he doesn't want to accept your apology and/or work on the problem. If you keep pushing him, you'll only be making things worse.
If he brings up the subject, fine. Then you can try to talk to him and make him understand. If he doesn't, then assume that he's either: A) too offended, B) too hurt, or C) has a cob up his @rse for some reason. In any event, pushing the discussion is only going to make him more uncomfortable and defensive.
You've made your apology, the situation can't be undone, and that's about where the matter may have to rest.

Don't say anything more to him about it, just act as you would have if you hadn't DD. You've already apologized and it doesn't really matter what you said obviously it was offensive or the simple fact you dialed him drunk in itself was offensive. Do consider you are drinking way too much and alone, a sign you need to back off the alcohol. Take it from someone who has been there, it doesn't get better if you continue to abuse.

Go to someone you trust at work and whom knows and respects you. Try to find out if they have heard anything. Once you know what was said you can start damage control. I would go to my boss and just bring up the fact that you had a falling out with this guy and that you want him or her to hear it from you first. Just say you were a little tipsy, you called this guy and said some things that upset him and that you regret and you just want to move past it and do your job. Other than that, I don't know what else you can do. But don't harrass that poor man you called anymore. He's never going to accept your apology and you'll just have to deal with that.

I have a drunk-dialing problem myself. I would write him an e-mail. Express that you are sorry, you do not rememeber what you said and would appreciate if he could accept your apology and forget about the whole incdent. Get rid of his number too! If he can't get over it and is in fact spreading the word around work, do not let it bother you too much, it happens to the best of us.

Don't drink again. Cobra, I hope, its not a true story but it has happenned to millions of people, thats what the stats say. I do not understand why they take alcohol so lightly over here. My son went to a party and all the teens were drinking in the presence of the host's parents. One teen, who is otherwise nice and has a good GPA drank a lot and started strangling the host, when my son rescued him. I am a muslim and sometimes I wonder, why did I let my kids assimilate in this culture of alcohol.
I pray everyday to please God let my family be alcohol free. Was alcohol part of my American dream.

Is it fair we have to look down?
It was a beautiful, warm summer day,
I took my wife and our three kids to the park.
We laughed and we played, like a family should,
Until it was time to head home, just after dark.
We stopped at the dairy queen, and ordered ice cream,
Because we promised our kids, that’s exactly what we’d do.
As we drove home, singing songs and talking about the day,
I realized I was looking down, at my wife and my children to.
A car came from out of nowhere, and ripped our van in two,
My kids are covered with blankets, to hide their missing face.
And as I’m looking down I see my wife, gasping for her last breath,
Its then I knew, she would join us, in this different place.
And now I see myself, amongst the metal and broken glass,
Because the place where I had been sitting, is now in the trunk.
The car that took our life’s, on that beautiful summer day,
Was driven by nothing more, than a DRUNK.
So do you truly think its fair that my family has to look down?
At the ones who put us here while they continue to enjoy their fun.
I wish you could see, all the lives you have cut short,
All because you wanted to drive, and drink because you thought it was fun.

We have ALL said things when we were drunk that embarressed us later. YES, even Mr. smarty-pants coworker. Maybe he is pretending to be weirded out or is a prude and easily offended. I am positive he has done the same thing to someone else before and will get over it.
Just ignore him. He's being a jerk for not accepting your apology.
Perhapse you could take him out for a drink and get him to open up about it?

Apologize again , be sincere and explain what the scenario was . If he doesn't accept your apology move on with your life . Every time u apologize doesn't mean that person has to accept it . They either do or they don't . And if u take this advice and apologize again , what more can u do you said u were sorry .

he might desire to have some clarification for asserting "Make me love you lower back". It definetly feels like he nevertheless has thoughts for you. He possibly considered how common you have been, or have been showing the wear up grew to become into. And pronounced that via fact he possibly needed you to assert which you didnt prefer to flow on. men are puzzling whilst it is composed of our thoughts. (yet so are you). Wiat a splash bit, in case you do wanna be with him, sounds liek you 2 ought to talk it over. considering you nevertheless prefer to be around one yet another.
