"All I want is for her to understand how much of a wake up call she's given me and that I would be completely selfless from now on."

She said that even though she still wants to be friends, she wants to have some time apart. Now is not the time to say what you wanted to say. So don't try and package all "those things I should have said but didn't" into a big apology and hurl it towards her.

The best thing is to ignore her until she feels like making the move to you. At the end of it, you'll have a good friendship and all the time to say those things you should have asid (if you still feel like saying them then). Who knows, there's a the possibility she may realise that she misses you in the time apart, and the even tinier possibility that the relationship may be re-started (but don't have any expectations).

Anyway, I suggest you chalk this one up as a learning-experience. Life is full of them - you never get to a point when you stop learning things. But at least you'll die a genius at the end.
