Default Supposed to meet with ex. Please Help

My ex and I broke up after a 3 year relationship about 2 months ago. She was never able to say I love you. I never believed she didn't because her actions were way louder than any words could be. I never got pathetic and begged. Only stated a couple of my opinions and told her basically what I said above about actions vs. words. I also told her I was going to use this break-up as a time for major reflection and self improvment (physical and emotional) and only looked forward to what the future held. She did phone me two days later to say that she had done nothing but cry and thought that maybe it was her own insecurities that kept her from love, not the fact that she didn't love me. I urged that she try to figure that out on her own becauseI didn't want false hopes and I thought that time apart would be the only thing to make us stronger if we were to ever get back together .We have remained in very light since the break up. It has been a couple of e-mail jokes here and there, maybe an interesting news article, etc. It has come from both sides so don't think I was the only one sending them.

Anyways, last week I asked her if she would like to get together for a drink or coffee this week. She sounded very excited and said yes. I had no intention of talking about us but did want to show her some of the changes I have made w/o verbally expressing them. Basically, I was going to give a couple of weeks of hanging out and see where it went because I would like very much to work things out with her.
I e-mailed her to confirm a time and place for us to grab a drink and this is the response I got:

Well, my first reaction is if she really, really, really wanted to meet up with you she would do it, no holds barred just speaking honestly here while I'm sure her excuse is true.I see it as being just that an excuse and I wouldn't be feeling too great right about now if I were you.

I would leave the ball in her court at this point and see what measures/steps she takes into rescheduling another meeting if that's what you really want.

I think she still has feelings for you, but be sure to err on the side of caution. I would rather have love shone than told, because very often, my ex told me he loved me but I never knew if he meant it.

How would you recommend I "leave it in her court" w/o being rude and ignoring her?

She's either not that into getting together with you because doing a silly "detox thing" with her Girl Friend takes priority or she's very impulsive and thinks this silly "detox thing" must be done next week to the exclusion of all else (not likely), or the silly "detox thing" is just an excuse so she can have more time to gather her thoughts prior to seeing you because she is either 1) scared or 2) confused.

If you still want to meet her then go ahead- but her postponing the meeting like this is not a good sign. I think she is really showing you where you are on her priority list and getting back together with you is obviously very low on it.

Whatever you do have very low expectations.

Do you all think she has totally moved on? Does she think that after two months I am ready to be just friends? Is she intentionally/unintenionally toying with my emotions?

Here is our latest correspondence. Please give advice. I am not thinking clearly. I really want to get together and possibly try to work things out. I am getting the feeling she really doesn't care. What should I do now?
