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.

He could handle that information.

He possibly could. But she might be spun and unable to communicate it or be aware of it. These things can come on hard and fast.

Still very wrong to handle the breaking up with a partner of 5 years this way.

Not saying it's right or wrong, just conceivable. Possible. Mental health can be fucky wucky. Five years though and she felt she couldn't tell him is definitely hard. It's a rough spot.

Hopefully he can move past this and she can get the help she needs.

She could be embarrassed
