She doesn't want to be touched or kissed by me.

I'm 22 and starting dating a girl this past summer. She had recently ended a 2 year relationship. We would see each other everyday and had an awesome time together. We both knew that she was starting grad school this semester and I would still be an undergrad but we wanted to try to make it work. We had both told each other that we loved one another and meant it. Its a 4 hour drive which isn't too bad but enough to make it only possible for weekend trips to see each other. We broke up twice and decided later to stay together because we cared about each other so much. Now I think it is over for good. For the past month she has claimed to be in a "nonromantic funk" that she can't really get over. She says that she still loves me but doesn't want to be kissed or touched by anyone and ensures me that it is nothing that I have done to cause it. I went up there this weekend and she broke up with me because she doesn't want me waiting around for her to get out of this "funk" and get hurt more by waiting. Neither of us can figure out why she is in this funk to begin with. What do I do? Move on or wait around?
