Need advice is she still worth it?

Hi, I need some advice please? First let me say that i know with every part of me that this is the girl of my dreams and i love her. My gf and i recently broke up a month ago, it was quite an ongoing saga to say the least. First started when we came home from the bar one night and i had a little too much and said a little too much about us, i said that i was sick of this and sick of that and was over it. I realize now that i have a problem expressing myself, brush things off like theres nothing wrong and bottle them up. A few days later we had another argument, she said i think we need to take a break, i said let's just breakup and the scary thing was she just sat there and nodded (she is a very strong person with alot of backbone and i wasn't expecting this). We agreed to keep living together and sharing the same bed, and said we would give each other the respect of letting the other know if we were coming home late or staying at a friends( which we both did often during the whole thing). We thought it was stupid to not grocery shopping together since we were still planning on seeing out our lease, so we decided at the shops that we would have dinner and talk. Got home, she was on the phone to the internent guy and my buddy told me he was coming to get me and before i knew it i was out the door and at the bar with him. I blew her off even though she txt me if i was hungry and coming back soon? I did not reply and came home later that night, she put effort into the meal and i immediatey felt sick with guilt. I thought that by blowing her off i would speed up the process of breaking up even though i love her with all my heart, and was terrified of letting go (stupid logic, i know). I found out later this was the last straw for her and that things were done, i made a last ditch attempt to reconcile poured my heart out into a letter and sent her roses but she still felt the same and i thought it was done.We still continued to live together one day we were civil and would occasionally cuddle or even sleep together, tell each other that we miss one another and the next be at each others throats and me on the couch. This went on for a week or two, then had another go at talking about being civil. We went out for dinner and both agreed that we need a break, could still see a future together and the next evening i would move in with a male friend. We had the best conversation and evening in months and then yes you guessed it slept together. The next day i thought that we could ride out living together then move onto to separate accom. I didn't move in with buddy and the whole cycle started again and we were arguing again, so i finally did move out but we had dinner together and left on good terms. That night at 2am i get a txt "i need you", i respond "is everything ok?". I was worried for her but thought if she really was in trouble she would've called. She had a trip booked home to see her family and friends where she grew up and began txting me at night asking how i was, what i was up to and that the town we are living in felt more like home everyday. We would flirt via txt, tease each other and once she said "i'm just an ex gf that cares dearly for you!" WHich got me so excited to see her when she got back. The night she got back she txt me and for some reason my phone didn't register it until the next day, and i was so angry that i missed that chance and i saw her we talked briefly then i went to a party and asked her what she was doing after work and if she wanted to catch up? She told me that she was going out with friends and could i take a rain check. I was devastated, walked back home drunk and went to bed until i get a call at 5am from her more drunk than i've ever seen her and she's at the apartment door. Instead of letting her in a walked her home and told her we would talk tomorro when she was sober. She then hugs me and tells me how amazing i am, goes to bed then txts me that she sorry and thankyou xoxo and all that. I woke up in the morning said we need to talk sooner the better, tell her i want her as my gf and if she feels different then i have to move on because the hurt was getting unbearable, i couldn't stand the constant mind games. After i sent her a msg and said i couldn't do this anymore, i wanted no contact until we got over each other and if she could delete my number if she couldn't refrain. She replied that it was the best relationship shes ever had, was scared she would never find that feeling again but didn't know if we could get back what we had and finished saying she doesn't want to lose me. I agreed with her and said that if there's ever hope for us being together or even being friends that we need NC and and to respect each others space. She responded that i make her happy and it's too hard to just cut it off. I didn't reply and thought to myself that i didn't want to lose her as a friend and that she was still the sweetest and most beautiful woman i've ever laid eyes. It was 3 days later that i thought of txting her, and at the same time she walked right into my workplace??!!(coincidence?) We talked for ten minutes went through, happy, sad, her almost crying, then agreed that it was too hard to just cut off all ties. I was finishing work in 30 minutes, then asked me if i wanted to come over after work. I did, we began to have sex then stopped midway because it felt weird. Then tried again and was great and cuddled after. We decided that maybe we could be friends and start hanging out in the future but to take things very slow and maybe throw in the occasionally booty call, but i think now sex is a bad idea and could cause more problems. That night we began txting each other initiated by myself strangely enough, and i woke up with a txt saying that "is it bad that i want to cuddle you and sleep beside you". I fell asleep then responded in the morning " not if we feel the same way", and didn't get a reply from her. A few days later a buddy came into town and we went to the pub she works at (not my choice) and she was working. She hung around our table quite abit but at the end was a bit standoffish. I want the girl back but is she just keeping me at arms length for her own security as a back up or to help ease her own suffering??? So here i am, i am very grateful that you've taken the time to read this. I know it is long but felt that it would be easier to understand in more detail. Cheers joseph.m
