Should I apologize? ignore her? Do something special? I need this one...
There's your problem... You NEED this one.
She contacted you again and you instantly jumped back to being insanely into her, was probably too much. A lot of guys on this forum say that often exes contact you again just to know they can still have you, sometimes after they break up with the guy they were seeing after you, and I think they're right.
She said she dreamed of you, probably an idealised, fantasy version of you and the real thing could never add up I'm sorry to say. You showed neediness and she ran off, classic story.
Your best option is NC, just move on and try to meet other girls. It sucks, but despite what you feel now, she isn't a special little snowflake. A few months of NC will make you realise that.
