In regards to the ring, I think if I had told him I wasn't wearing it he would have said, 'see, I was right.' I'm glad you asked me that, because I hadn't thought about it that way. It helps, and makes me think you're right, its a test.
As far as the phones go, no, I can't separate them right now without causing a battle. He pays for both of our phones on a family plan, so I'd rather deal with him 'checking up on me' than dealing with him wanting to know why I need privacy. I have nothing to hide in that respect. He already keeps making comments about me 'moving on' (he absolutely hates my GALing) and I think doing that would only put fuel on that fire.
