Ex Gf Demanding To Review Belongings I Moved Out Of Home After Breakup

Card image cap

My ex and I were together for about 9 years, but not legally married or domestically-partnered. We lived together, but I was not on the lease (I moved in a few years into our relationship). When I recently ended our relationship (after a difficult few years), I asked her if she wanted to be there when I packed; she said no, that wouldn't be necessary.

Now that I have moved out, she is demanding I allow her to go through all of my belongings (which are mostly still boxed up). She will not specify what exactly she believes I have that doesn't rightfully belong to me, but only that she must go through everything to be sure. Does she have any legal grounds to do this? When she first mentioned this, I assured her I took only what was mine (either owned prior to moving in, given to me as a gift, or purchased for myself while living together). I also assured her that IF I did accidentally or mistakenly packed something that wasn't mine, and she simply told me what she alleges is missing, I would look for it an if true, would return it immediately. But again, she refused to provide any specifics.
