Does taking a break mean that your relationship is over?

For context, this girl and I had been friends for a while. I caught feelings so I told her how I felt because like why not right? She was really happy I said something and she wanted to work towards a relationship, but she had some personal stuff going on so she didn't want to start dating. Now that's understandable in my opinion and I was okay with that, so I was just like okay take your time. As long as we were making progress I was fine with it. But then this whole virus thing went down and we stopped seeing each other but we started texting a lot. Like pretty much all day. So we were getting really close and I felt like we might start dating soon so I just kinda asked where we were in our relationship, not trying to force her to do anything just to get a feel for where we were, and she tells me that she doesn't want to get into a relationship right now because she's going to have a lot of changes and stress in her life soon. Like she's going to college, and it's going to be far from her family, and it's just a lot. So she says that it'd be best if we just stayed friends and tried to work on a relationship later. Now I've never been in a relationship so I thought she meant that we were going to stay where we were and be really close and on the edge of dating, she legitimately wanted us to be friends and just stop. Now that was my bad for not understanding. But I felt off about it so I told her how I felt. I told her that I understood that she needed time to settle into her new life and that I was willing to do that but that it was hard for me to wait.l because I wanted to be with her right now. And I was just looking for her to maybe talk with me and see if we couldn't work things out. But she texted me and said that she wanted to take a break and see if that will help clear things up. I was really nervous about this because I felt like we were already distant and not communicating well, and now she wants to cut communication entirely. It just worries me that she is going to come back from the break and say that she doesn't think we're working out or something and I'm nervous. I'm giving her space but I'm just really worried. So am I just freaking out for nothing or is this a sign that were done?
