I'm not sure he's willing to go counselling for this alone, seeing that he doesn't think there's an issue. But we recently got engaged, so maybe we can go to a marriage prep counselling course and I can bring it up.



I'm not sure a 'test' would work. It's not possible for him to put his phone away and feel disconnected from the world, for even half a day or a few hours. I'll maybe try the counselling approach...and hopefully that'll go somewhere.
Ah, the reason I was suggesting a "test" was to show your SO that there indeed is a problem. Sort of like a smoker/alcoholic in denial. "I can quit any time I want."
