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"

Marriage

It is when two people come together and choose to do what is best for their unit over each individual. Marriage is a legal contract that two parties make with each other and there are penalties for not continuously working on the marriage like you would a garden. Weeds will come in and plants will die if you don't water the garden. Same with a marriage. Both parties must work to keep each other happy and treat each other nice regardless of what tough times they are experiencing individually. Life is no longer just about you, it is about the team. When this happens, you will know you are in a real marriage.

We are in this marriage for the long run so we don't worry about the little things

Lavender marriage

"Brennan and Alyssa got married last week."
"Whoa! But I thought he was gay."
"He is, and so is she. But they're both Christians, so they got married."
"Oh, that's weird. What were the colors?"
"Lavender and rose, 'cause it was a 'lavender marriage'"
"Nice pun!"
