As many have said, if she's asking for time and space, then give it. And give it honestly, don't check in every other day to see if it's been "long" enough. LOL
It all depends on the transgression and, of course, the people. But I've know it to not work, and I've known it to work. I had to step away from a person for almost two years. Give her space. Work back into her graces slowly. Finally after two years we were able to see where it goes again. And I am in a much better place to move it forward, and I think the relationship is in a much better place, with much clearer disclosure.
So give her the time/space she needs. Take that time to look at yourself, like why you did whatever it was that you did. What You want from this or any relationship. etc etc etc
It will get better in time. Hang in there.
