How can I show her I have honestly changed and want to be the man she needs?

Recently I broke up with my girlfriend of one year. We spent everyday together and fell deeply in love. The moment after the break up I knew I wanted to right things and get her back. But she seems like the type of women that doesn't just let anyone back into her life for no good reason. I tried to explain to her that I over reacted and should have talked out the problem. This is the first time we have ever broke up so its not like we have been off and on. She did say though that I haven't made her feel special for a long time i never truly opened up to her and the last few months have been miserable. We have now decided to try the friends after break up thing. Which seems to kind of be working but deep down I want her back more then anything. I have accepted the break up for what it was and learned a lot from it. How can I show her I have honestly changed and want to be the man she needs? Or do I accept the friendship a just be happy for that? Please help!
