I am using an Xperia Arc, and there are two ways to protect yourself on this phone (I'm not sure about yours), but unfortunately, you can't use them together
1: If you have a contact in your phone that you don't want to call you... go to their contact information and click "edit contact". At the bottom you'll find a tick-box called "Send calls directly to voicem"
This is great, because there won't even be a flashing light if they call you, but it will still log the call in your missed calls list (even if they don't leave a voicemail) so you can see which of your girls has called you. You'll still need to double check your call log before handing the phone over to your Mrs though
The funny thing about forwarding calls to voicemail is that the girls don't know that you're filtering out their calls, and they think your phone is off. When you call them back they'll be surprised as they were trying to contact you. You can tell them that you didn't know, and that it's coincidence (fate/6th sense) that you called on the same day
Three girls have fallen for it already
2: The second feature that I always use, and it might work on other Android phones, is the syncronised Google contacts feature. You can arrange your contacts into groups on the Google Contacts web-page. Then, on your phone, choose to only display contacts from the group "My Contacts", and make sure that none of your girls are in that group. Then, when you want to search for your girls' or agents' numbers, just go into your phone's contact list, select to display the contacts group "hobbying" (for example), and all your girls' and agents' numbers will magically appear. Deselect it, and all the contacts disappear again
The problem is, if you're hiding the girls' numbers with method 2, you can't block them with method 1
Anyway, I'm guessing the developers at Sony Ericsson have a secret or two as well, otherwise they wouldn't be so considerate as to include these features as standard
