I fell in love with a friend who rejected me. How long should I wait before trying to reconnect without feeling like i'm stalking her?

So I basically fell hard for a co worker through the summer. I didn't mean to, but I really fell for her. She immediatly noticed my crush even tho she had someone, and we agreed to remain friends, but because of my feelings I i acted without realising in ways that made her feel awkward, etc so obviously she started avoiding me.

we had a big argument about that, and she ended up blocking me on Instagram. I knew she was quitting (not because of me of course it was planned since she started) and on her last week, I finally told her I was in love with her.
A couple of days later, we started talking, she told me not to worry that we were on good terms.. I explained my side of things, which she understood (how it was tough for me to move on because i was seeing her every day which is why I was being weird etc) and she spent her last shift with me , talking like we used to. I told her that if she wanted, we could just wait a few months so I could heal and move on, and she could reconnect with me if she wanted when i would be ready to be really just friends.. she nicely told me that it "wasn't her style to unblock people" and she didn't want me to expect a text otherwise "I would not live", especially since we might not see each other again
. When it was time for me to leave, she gave me a very sweet, long look in my eyes in a sad way, without saying anything like if she was saying she was sorry/goodbye... Two weeks later, I found her on Snapchat. I tried to add her, but I was on "pending" for a while, (like if she was hesitating or thinking about it) and it was driving me crazy so I cancelled the request. It has been two months now since we said goodbye, and I am so tempted to try and add her again but i don't want to seem like i'm stalking and a rejection would be horrible.. what should I do? How long can I wait before I can try to reconnect with her? we were great friends and I would love to fix this and save the friendship...
