Keep them but never use them.
Throw them away, they hold unwanted memories.

I would keep them and use them. I might have to store them for awhile first, but if they are toys I really like, there is no sense throwing them away.

It depends. Since I have a few different types of toys.

BDSM toys- if they were used on the partner I would probably throw them out. Since I am usually the bottom though that isn't a huge issue.

Dildos/Vibrators/etc- I'd probably keep them. I only buy sterilizable materials so it wouldn't be an issue of safety at that point.

If they're nice toys, yes. Just because a partner left doesn't mean I have to get rid of a good toy.

I threw my previous toys out when I got with my hubby and we have built the supply back up based on what we want and need as individuals and as a couple

If I had them before the relationship, keep them. If we got them as a couple, trash them.

Depends on the relationship, but I'd probably keep them.

I kept all mine after my last relationship. I stored them for a while though, I didn't want to think about him while using that. When the feeling went away, I used my toys again!

it all depends on the toy. If it was something we would use together, then it might go. If it was just for me, I would keep it.

If it was one they hadn't used I'd keep it. The memories don't matter to me. It's just an object. If they used it I'd prolly throw it away, unless it was really nice...haha

It would depend. If it was something that couldn't be sanitized that my partner used, I would either give it to them when we broke up (depending on how the breakup went) or throw it out.

Cock rings would probably get thrown out because it would be weird to ask another man to wear something my ex also wore.

Toys that were for me and were used only by me during the relationship, I would keep.

Ehh, why not? It's not as if the toy is the ex themselves.

I would probably keep them, unless keeping them ment that everytime I used them I would think of him... but that wouldn't be the case for me.

No reason to throw them out under most occasions. There might be the few that requires them to be.

No sympathy, a gift is a gift and I don't feel particularly sentimental about them.

Keep em. The toys are inanimate objects, it's the person I'm using them with that I connect with.

I threw my old toys away I didn't want to "recycle" I feel bad that I knew how the toys were used and with who they were used...it was kinda a dirty feeling.

I'd do something similar. This I think is a good breakdown between an ex-partner and the toy.
