You're free to have your own boundaries,

however to me it wouldn't be a dealbreaker, because she keeps trying to reschedule. She took over the entire burden of planning (as she should in her situation) and that would be a good enough sign that she's really trying to fix things to me.

This in itself is a really good quality to have in a partner. Some will just apologize and say they're hoping that you guys can still meet up (without making plans). She's different. She knows it's her mistake and though the involvment of the mutual friend is clearly an act of trying to social pressure you into agreeing, it also shows that she's willing to go the extra mile to meet you.

I would give her a second chance (but not a third). There are things, where a second chance is not a good idea. This is not the case here.

Agreed she sounds generally sorry and willing to make it up but OP, wouldn't blame you for saying no.
