I don't think she's hit Acceptance yet...she's still in replay and she's not wanting to be alone. Yes, she wants something different than the relationship she has w/you. She wants someone who is fun, won't question her and, of course, no responsibilities. If I am correct, the comment about being alone is to distance herself more from you so that you don't get your hopes up. I could be wrong...but time will tell.
Generally, when they hit the deep, dark depression, withdrawal will come alone and they don't announce that they want to be alone...they just slowly disappear for a while.
As for apologies, some of them will apologize and then turn around and do the same stuff again and again. The guilt of what she's done and is doing will make her feel bad for a while and by apologizing and you accepting the apologies, relieves her guilt. It could also be a way to keep you "hooked" into the situation...but again, time will tell. They like to know that we are right where they left us.
The stages of MLC are just a guideline, just as the timelines. Words are just words...what are her actions telling you?
I would continue moving forward and keep the focus on you. If she is truly waking up, she will do the hard work if she wants to reconcile w/you. Time will tell. Again, I'm sorry for being a Debbie Downer, but I think she's still experiencing replay behavior. I hope that I am wrong.
