Since I'm usually the penetrative partner, I usually get to keep all of "our" toys.

If my partner brought them into the relationship, of course I return them.

I will also return those that my partner has a special affinity to, but I don't promise to return them in tact.

I've had this happen once. It wasn't discussed ever. I ended up throwing away the what I knew would be weird to use with someone else (mostly cock rings). I returned one he bought for us, but destroyed it since he shouldn't have used it with anyone else. I did this because I knew his questionable hygiene. I don't think he was smart enough to figure that out on his own-the nature of the porous material. If my current boyfriend and I were to break up now, I think I would give him the masturbation sleeve stuff because it would be inappropriate to use with anyone else, but I would keep cock ring type things and destroy them so neither of us would use them with anyone else. 99% of the toys, I have bought or gotten for review so he could keep whatever he wanted from his review items. He picked them after all.

Yeah, I don't think there is any question that I would keep them.

lol Well, guess I have the same mind frame cuz the toys are mostly for my own pleasure. I'm greedy lol I can't imagine breaking up with Hubby though. Been through too much together.

I'm fluid bonded with my toys, plus I'm the reviewer. Not to mention, even with the BDSM toys, I'm the one receiving so I get to keep them.

Maybe a shared custody agreement? Eww. Gross never-mind.

The ones I've bought were gifts to my gf and I would never expect them back after a breakup. I also wouldn't have any use for them myself.

He has "his" toys that he can't use with anyone else because they're masturbation toys and anal toys... he can HAVE them. I keep my vibrators and dildos.

I buy all my toys, and I would keep them as all penetrative toys are used on me. But for hygiene reasons (not to mention that it would be awkward with another partner "here, put on a slightly used c-ring!", I would toss all cock rings.

I buy it or it's a gift, it's mine. If he wanted to give me something we used together that's fine too. Same for the dishes and other personal effects.

Toys for him are toys for him, though I seriously doubt he'd have the gall to include them in a future relationship.

Toys for me are mine and he has no right to possession of them in the slightest.

Generally: I'm the one who buys the toys, so I'm the one who gets to keep them, easy as that. Certain lesser-quality cock rings would get tossed, but anything we shared that's sterilizable would be cleaned and used with future partners probably. Most of the collection is penetrative toys that only go in me, so there'd be no reason for him to have them.

A few things would be harder to split up, like the Sex in the Shower stuff and some bondage things.. not sure how that would get worked out. In the past I let my ex take our under the bed restraints because he paid for them but my current lad and I went splits on the coupley things so who knows. Hopefully we'll just never break up so I'll never have to figure it out

I only had toys involved in one other relationship, and I kept them since they were only used a few times and on me each time.

I don't ever see my husband and I splitting, but if we did, I would have him keep any masturbation sleeves or anything like that. I would dispose of the cock rings and other sharable things like that that weren't able to be sanitized or shared (the only possible exception being my favorite bullet, on which I would get rid of the sleeve for a new one, something I should do every so often anyway). Anything that I bought for myself, I would keep.

I would let him take the sleeves, and keep the rest for myself.

Now that is classic!! And very gross!

I guess I wouldn't want any of them if we were ever to divorce. If he wanted let him have them, I say. I wouldn't care what he did with them at that point. After all was said and done I would go on a new shopping spree.

They are mine all mine! Anyone petty enough to ask for an intimate object like that back is just plan crass.

I'd keep all of them, unless they were mainly for male use. I wouldn't have any need for those.

Keep them! Unless there was something that only really worked for him and he'd use more.
