If she voices concerns, and you say, "that doesn't make sense," that is a dismissive response. Nobody will want to give you any second chances if that's your attitude. But if you say, "hey, I care about you so much, I know something bothers you. Can you please help me understand what exactly bothers you that made you want to leave the relationship?" Then maybe the other person will be open to share.
You do have to be ready for them to respond that they don't want to share. You cannot be selfish and only think, I want this relationship back, I want this relationship back. Then you're coming from a place of need, you're coming from a place of a lack. Relationships are doomed when one person starts from a place of lack.
So it's important to respect the other person, understand the other person, and to see if this is even a good idea for both of you. If it's just for you and she doesn't benefit, it's not the right fit.
I think if you guys keep the communication open and honest, you will find a time to hang out that work for both of you. It seems that right now without they communication, his needs are not being met nor being communicated.
