If she still contacts you, she loves you.
 
Just stop hogging her all the time.

When I told a now ex-girlfriend that I wanted a break, it was because I was fed up with her.

Thoughts? What? None of us know you or your girlfriend, so how could we possibly offer you any meaningful advice? I am of the opinion that these sorts of questions/problems are best sorted out with friends and family, not internet message boards about video games.

Well, at least you came to the right place. A website about video games is obviously the best possible place to seek relationship advice.

Absolutely all of this. Some matters are best kept away from the general public.

Go do your own thing for awhile. Hang out with your own friends. Focus on your own life. Don't ignore her or shut her out, but also don't really prioritize her for a little while. See how she responds. You two might really just need a little space, and that's OK. Doesn't mean it's the end of the world. But usually when one or the other person in a relationship is losing interest, it's because you've started taking each other for granted, so the quickest way to get it back is to simply decrease said attention. And, if she decides she likes having her own space and that she doesn't really want to hang out with you anymore, then you know which way the wind is blowing and can make your decision accordingly.

Chill out bro. For one thing NEVER EVER fight about your girl's guy friends. That just makes you look like an immature jackass who has insecurity issues.
 
Also stop with the spamming of her phone. Not the best way to help your cause. Besides, she could actually be busy and not able to answer it. I can definitely say she won't like looking at her phone and seeing like 20 text messages and 10 missed calls from you. That just makes you look weak.
 
Just calm down, pop in a nice violent video game and shoot some guys in the face. Let her know that her taking a break is not that big of a deal to you, and you are willing to give her the space she needs. 
 
Is this your first girlfriend? I'm not asking in a bad way or anything, just trying to make out the situation, since I have been exactly where you were way back in the day.

@Killa_Jo: I don't know you or her, but I do know that I would have already said to myself "fuck it, its time to move on" because its probably already over. At the very least, you should just stop texting and calling and just let her call you.

Breaks usually mean they don't want you, but don't have the balls to throw you our of their life completely. She's probably curious about someone else. Either way, forget her.

Disagree, I take it your a young guy, honestly if you are this worried and stressed about this girl, then it's best for both of you to end it. Your young, what the hell are you doing being so damn committed? I wouldn't even waste my time with all that "break" bullshit, from my personal experience the last girl to say she wanted a "break" turned out she just wanted to see if I actually would get worried and would cause me to want her more. And hate to tell you, that's usually what the girl is trying to do, simply stress you out. 
Don't waste your time dude, go find another chick, or better: Her best friend lol 
I know it seems like it sucks to lose her, but dude life does go on, break ups suck and they hurt like a bitch but man, your young, seriously there are PLENTY of girls out there, this is drama that you don't need.

not to be mean, but if she wants a break, i agree with EpicSteve. she's probably more interested in someone else, which is why she is spending more time elsewhere. whether or not she's done anything doesn't matter much, because we're talking about feelings here, not actions. the best you could do is let her do her thing, and if she comes back, fine... if not, fine... just make sure you have things to keep your interest towards yourself, your friends, etc. and not be focusing on her. if you focus on other things, you won't be a mess, and you can deal with things as they come with a cooler head once she figures out what she wants. also, bang her sister if she's hot (obligatory forum mentality)

It's over, time to move along now.  "I want a break" means "I want to bang a lot of people, but keep you on hold in case it falls through". 
 
Best thing you can do is go do your own thing, with your own people having a good time and don't think about her.  If she see's your life is better without her, she'll come back like the needy parasite she really is, and you can shut her down again, shattering her self-confidence into pieces too small for her to pick up the next few years.  She'll probably then fall into drug problems and amateur porn star circuits, if she doesn't kill herself first. 
 
But the best advice I can give you is to find a new girl bro.  And don't let her know you need her.

Maybe she wants a break because she feels you're being a little jealous and smothering and feels some time apart will be good for you two. Maybe she just doesn't want to be around you anymore and is seeing whether you take the hint or if it's better to not be with you anymore. I don't know the situation or people involved well enough to make an educated guess.
 
If I had to make very vague, very general advice it'd be prepare yourself mentally for a break up since that is always a possibility. That way if she does you won't get so emotional that you may do or say something you may regret. If you feel like taking an active approach to resolving this issue and staying together if you feel that she may indeed dump you, you can try to ask her yourself if she's thinking about breaking up with you or, if you feel like being indirect, ask her friends if she's said anything about you that she didn't like. If they're willing to help that can usually be taken as a good sign.  If not, they either don't like you personally, don't feel like getting in the middle of it(though they might divulge information as long as it can't be traced back to them), or they don't like you from something your girlfriend said. 
 
Again, this is very general. Modify it to the best of your ability to suit your situation. Or ignore it. That's fine too.

I hate to do this sir, but  if you were to look in the Book of Internets, page 173, paragraph 5, you would see that pictures are only required in the event that live streaming is not possible and if no official is present. So you see, good sir, you were only half right.

you should follow her at night and see where she goes, and hide in the shrubbery, then lurk in the shadows. then while shes taking a shower, break into her house and write I LOVE YOU! on the bathroom mirror in lipstick. just so she knows your still there for her.

I have this one close female friend of mine who is also very close with a couple of my other buddies.  Her best friends are all male.  Her ex-boyfriend (note ex) who we all used to be friends with would argue with her about us. 
 
Nobody likes him anymore.

in my experience "take a break" is the phase right before "broken up". Sorry bud, just my 2 cents.
