I was on day 5 of no contact. doing my self personal growth, and suddenly my ex gf reach out. Just saying "HI, how are you?". I just reply politely with no details. she basically told me nothing just checking in.
I feel she felt I was moving on

Take it from someone who has been there. Every time she reaches out, it's like adding salt to the wound. You are better off blocking her. I did and I feel so much better.
do you feel like her message reopened old feelings, or was it more the confusion of why she reached out now, right when you were starting to feel steady again
I had the hope we could continue our relationship. but now im back in day 2 nc
you handled it better than i ever did. short, polite, no details.
day 4 or 5 of no contact and suddenly a “hey stranger” pops up. my ex did the same once i went quiet. it messed with my head way more than the breakup itself
from my perspective it feels like a probing shot. I am attempting no contact with a person who when we broke up it was mutual but more than both of us wanted a change in the other that wasn't happening with the safety of a relationship.
if you truly think this is a person you want to reconnect with I would suggest giving them a date one or two months from now to meetup (or not) at a coffee shop. it gives you something to hang onto but also can help push you to maintain no contact to that point. if they don't show up to a short coffee date after months of not talking they aren't worth your time anyway
