telephone tag

When two people end up having a conversation via voice mail, because neither persons are near the phone when it rings. This can be both fun and frustrating at the same time.

voice mail 1: "pick up the bloody phone! I need to talk to you."

voice mail 2: "About what?"

voice mail 3: "a bunch of us are going out friday night. Wanna come?"

voice mail 4: "Out where? I need specifics. I'm geting tired of playing telephone tag"

This can continue on for a while, and potentially fill up ones voice mail memory.

telephone marriage

Usually, ship's crew members, ofiicers or ratings might be at sea working on various ships something like 80% of their time, sometimes even one year or more at a time, continuously. In case they are married they often call their wife from different ports of call or from the ship herself via satellite telephone, thus having actually a "telephone marriage" instead of a normal marriage.

Ben: You know, Mark calls his wife so often!
Steve: Yeah, I know, he has a "telephone marriage"

Telephone toughguy

A person who will talk shit over the phone (or any means of communication) only because they have no fear of actually having to fight the person on the other end or ever back up their words.

My ex girlfriend got a telephone toughguy that won't leave me alone, I'm gonna fuck him up if I ever find out who it is.
