I'd been dating this girl for a couple of months. I was excited about it in the beginning, but my excitement fell off rather quickly IMO. I wasn't really sure why; she has a lot the qualities I'm seeking. So I figured I'd give it some time, and see if my passion could be resurrected.
My detachment manifested itself in my behavior towards her. In my brain, I would vacillate back and forth between thinking it was great and I just needed some time, and seriously wondering if this was the right relationship. She was a little pissed at my that I didn't break it off sooner, as she'd been sensing this for several weeks now. She called me out on it last night and we talked and decided we should stop seeing each other.
I don't really understand why I wasn't that into her. Theoretically, she's perfect for me: intelligent, Christian, smokin' hot, etc, etc. But somehow I just wasn't that excited about it. Whatever the reason, I think that is a sign that it wasn't the right relationship.
If I find myself in this situation again, I will not wait so long to end it.
Dating again is so weird.

Chemistry.
Just bc it is right on paper doesn't mean it is right.

Breaking it off after a few months is OK. Sure earlier would have been better, but you didn't let it go on for years either. It sounds like you had a mature discussion and are ready to move forward.
Good luck to you.

it sounds like you were honest and fair. and that's the best that anyone could expect. rather than criticizing yourself you ought to be proud of how you handled the situation. sounds very honorable. well done.
