A new study out of the UK suggests that 1 in 10 people out there who never delete their ex’s nudes – hanging on to them for jerk off material? bragging? who knows.

Via Vice:

“What about my nudes?” probably isn’t the first thing that occurs to many people when they split up with a partner. But new research shared exclusively with VICE reveals that an alarming number of people in the UK are perfectly happy to cling on to revealing photos of their exes once the relationship is over – and in some cases, even forever.

Almost four in 10 people admitted to holding on to intimate photos of their partner after a break-up, according to a survey by specialist law firm Bolt Burdon Kemp. Shockingly, one in 10 said they didn’t ever intend to delete those images.

Daaaamn, that’s sketchy. Don’t make breakups harder by holding your ex’s nudes hostage! Here are some more safe nude sexting tips!
