Since it came up as an example of comparison elsewhere it made me think...
I realize it's a bit of a cheeky question for this forum, and considering the PG13, we don't need details ... but, do you dump your intimate pleasure items and intimate pleasure outfit collection when a relationship ends, and start a new collection?

Logic would dictate that if there's hygiene issues, you'd chuck it. But if that's not the case, would you get rid of it because of the memories?
Neither lingerie nor intimate pleasure items come cheap, so I'm curious if memories would outweigh the cost factor.

Never had any, er, paraphernalia to chuck :-)

Have never thrown out stuff due to a relationship as far as intimate clothing~~~~Humm as long as it can be washed and cleaned it is kept..

Paraphernalia?

I do, because there's no point in me thinking about sex, until I'm in another relationship. What I mean is, my mind will torture me about it, so out of sight, out of mind. Especially when it comes to sex. I just see no point in keeping that stuff around, if I end up single again.

This thread is getting interesting.

For me ,everything must go.
And start over.
I don't think it is fair to myself or the new guy to keep anything around.

Not that type of thing anyway.
Jewelry....now that is another story.

Nothing to see here, actually. Unless you have a one foot and a bit ruler. Never bothered with fake poles cause I could never find one as long as mine, so I never saw the point.
As for keeping clothes? I never wore any. As for the chicks wearing leather and such? They always just peeled it off and kept it off whenever I was in the room. No sovenirs to keep here, I'm afraid, unless of course you count the oversized ruler.
Been a slice,

Ummm.. do condoms count?

Ummmm.... I keep my lingerie it is expensive..
But the other stuff don't' own any and have no desire to... I much prefer to use my imagination.

Now if it is a special thing I bought specifically for him.. It is gone..

But honestly I don't usually do that.. If I am wanting to make that kind of statement. I must prefer to snag one of his dress shirts...And wear that with buttons ummm.. unbuttoned except for a couple..

Seems to me several items of "accoutrement" might come in even MORE handy SPECIFICALLY when single.

Bloody good point!

After my marriage ended, I threw the whole lot out. I didn't ever want to see it again.
Later on talked to some friends about it and they basically asked me if I was nuts, lol.
After my 2nd LTR I didn't throw anything away. I never been much of a toy collector so it was mostly outfits. And I bought them because they suited me. So why chuck them?
Must admit they've been sitting in the wardrobe, collecting dust.
But like TxsGal said, if I can wash and/or clean it, I'm keeping it.

Just another example of a throwaway Society..my god.. throwing away perfectly good lingerie and vibrators plus sex toys.... right now there's some African woman standing in a grass Hut right now somewhere shaking her head at you ...lol

So is she shaking her head as she just obtained a secondhand toy and she's shocked at the size compared to an African man ...
Or shaking her head as she wished she had herself a (secondhand) toy?

hmmm..any lingerie I now have should be replaced, unless shabby chic is in..lol
as for toys - I bought for me, so NO, they/it don't get thrown away..

I usually try to keep her panties, to muffle the sounds of next woman that takes her place.
