It depends, if the ring is not substituted then there is no splitting because all the hydrogens are the same. Mono-subtiuted,di,tri-it depends I need a specific example.
if there is no substitution so even though the hydrogens on the benzene ring are neighbors, there is still no splitting because they are identical hydrogens. If the benzene ring is substituted then it is a different story.

nothing just adding to was you said klutzy. i just adding that there is no splitting for identical neighbors. Its pretty much what you said just clarifying it
If you're talking about two identical substituents para to each other, as in p-xylene, then all four aromatic hydrogens are exactly the same, and do not split each other as explained above. In this case, all 6 methyl hydrogens are exactly the same as well, so the spectrum for p-xylene only shows two singlets.
