What happens to the bed (the bed you sleep in)?

Keep the frame. Buy new mattress and covers.

OMG it's so strange that this question appeared on here. My sister in law and I were just talking about this exact thing the other day. The reason being is my mom is sleeping with her new boyfriend in the bed that used to be hers and her ex boyfriends (they were together 25 years) AND to TOP it ALL OFF she lives in the house they shared and he still pays the mortgage and ALL the bills and my (my mom is lazy works like 6 days a month if that and makes maybe $100.00/month basically she thinks everybody owes her something and she leaches off us kids, and whomever else she can rip off!) mom still has a picture of her ex on the wall in her bedroom where they are having sex. And NO my moms ex is not stupid and allows this to happen he has no clue and if he did he would walk in that house throw all her **** out on the lawn and kick her out. My brother, sister and I are furious that she is doing this to her ex. It's my mom and all but to me that is just disrespectful and sleezy! Personally if I were to get a divorce I would throw the bed away. I think it's very inappropriate to have sex with a new man or woman in the same bed you shared with your ex. But as a woman, to me, it would have too many memories especially if the sex was good, and I would consider the mattress dirty. I know mattresses don't come cheap, but I just would NOT do it.

Depends, my observations informal as they are is that one of the pair generally keeps it even though they may not want to deal with the memories they do so because during and after the divorce the last thing they have is spare money to buy another.

I would give the bed away and buy a new one

Its time for a new bed!

I cut it in half, take my part, and move out.
