I'd interpret this to mean that she thinks you've been together too much lately, and she's feeling suffocated.
Good relationships allow each person a certain level of independence, as well as being part of a couple. It's easy for a person who is used to having a lot of time to herself to feel smothered by too much attention.
So, even though you love her and want to be with her as much as possible, it's important to understand that you need to give her time to herself too.
The irony is that in wanting all of her company, all the time, you can actually make her want to get away from you, because she doesn't want as much attention as you want to give.
So don't be frightened that "it's over". Back off for a bit, let her have some time away, and remember that all relationships that are worthwhile require small adjustments from both parties.
Let your girlfriend know that you want her to be happy, and that you'll busy yourself with other things for a while. Ask her to ring or text you when she's ready to do something together. Then be patient. You can't force someone to stay with you by holding onto them. But you can make your company more attractive, by not overdoing it.

Yeah I think she still does love you but maybe you guys have beeen spending a bit too much time together lately and she just wants some 'me time' to herself. It's not because she's gone off you or anything. She probably still appreciates you and loves being in your company but she just wants a little space for a little while. Think of it this way...lets say your favourite food is chocolate cake. If you had it everyday it wouldn't be your favourite anymore. But if you only have it from time to time you miss it and when you eat it again you appreciate it more. The pleasure from it doesn't wear off and it will still be your favourite.
