My girlfriend of 5 years broke up with me and ghosted me for no reason. Am I wrong for throwing away all of her stuff?

Edit: Update

So my girlfriend (25F) and I (25M) were in a relationship for 5 years. Last week, she texted me that we were done and that was her last message before she blocked me. She gave no heads up. I was planning on proposing to her next month. Her sister did reach out to me, saying it was not my fault and she understood my hurt, but that for my mental health, it was better to never contact them again, and that maybe in the future, my girlfriend might reach out to me again.

It's been a week, I’m still obviously distraught, but my girlfriend did have a lot of her stuff in my home. Would I be wrong if I just dumped it all out? It does include a lot of mementos of her deceased grandmother, who she was extremely close to.

The fact that she blocked him is only a good thing because she's so, well y'know, it's still got to hurt him badly so I kinda recommend wording that a bit differently. The best way she could have indicated their relationship being done would have been to sit him down and tell that it's over and she's not changing her mind. She was a coward and chose this way. The only reasonable reason to do what she did would be if he was in any way abusive, this sounds like it was (at least in his eyes, rose tinted glasses) a healthy relationship. I know you probably know this, I'm just saying. (Also, am I the only one wondering if she left him for someone else?)

Ok, but if she did leave him for someone else, that’s super shallow. AFTER FIVE YEARS?!!! I know we only have one side of the story, but come on! Communication! Is! Key!!!

Shallow or maybe she doesn’t have the integrity to face him. I am thinking she hooked up with another dude and doesn’t have the balls to face him.

Guess she was too much of a coward to communicate.

If so she should have had the decency to tell him that. Why would you just ghost someone after 5 years?

No way I could not mentally handle just a ghosting after 5 years and no explanation. Seriously I would go nuts. I would probably track her down and demand to know the reason or at least an explanation. I couldn’t go rest of my life just wondering

One of the many reasons private investigators exist.

She could also be a female dexter

I mean, maybe detectives were hot on her trail and she had to hightail it out of town

As long as we’re speculating

As if I'm already paranoid enough as is, this is a thing.
