Marriage

usually refers to when you sign a contract with a phone company in order to buy an iPhone, etc for way less. It means you have to stay with them for three years or pay loads of money to buy out. You can only upgrade after 20 months into your contract or just buy a new phone at full price. It's like a marriage because your stuck with them if you don't want to cough up a big sum to get out of it.
