    I personally would keep it, in fact I have done so and it's not caused any complaints at all with peeps. More of the 'ooh, what does that one do' kind of reaction :P.

    But I can see why some people could feel a bit dodgy or insecure about it. So your call really - you don't have to get it out with a new guy afterall if you think he's the funny sort!

    Dan Savage's Advice

    Noted sex columnist, Dan Savage, answered a question similar to this a few weeks ago.

    "My girlfriend of six months found it "awkward" when I used lubricant from a half-full bottle. A half-full bottle "hinted at past relationships." To me, this was no more awkward than our using condoms from a half-full box—which did not bother her. But she sees condoms as individually wrapped, single-use items, unlike a bottle of lubricant. Was I in the wrong for failing to purchase a new bottle of lube?

    Lubrication Etiquette, S'il Vous Plaît


    I'm tempted to break into your apartment, LESVP, spike your lube with Frank's RedHot sauce and open a live feed of the oil pouring into the Gulf of Mexico on both your laptops, because you two need something real to worry about. But as I don't know where you live: Personal lubricants are expensive. If the girlfriend believes a fresh bottle should be cracked open each and every time she gets with a new partner, then she should carry a case in the trunk of her car. And as a general note: Lube also comes in small, single-ass-serving packets—just like ketchup and mustard and condoms—and anyone worried about half-empty bottles of pubic-hair-befrazzled lube is free to invest in a box."

    put it on ur ice cream! I had a girl in work that actually bought the lube off me for this purpose lol! I would keep it, thats what I am planning to do with my stuff lol!

    Lube on ice cream is really nice. And on pancakes. It certainly made our last pancake party much more entertaining lol.

    Of course, the 'cherry' flavour would be a handy mixer for vodka ....

    I was thinking more about this thread and thought I'd add that I have given a half used tube of lube to a friend before now.

    The more I hear, the less I understand about women and lube etiquette.
