<human>: Could you distill the essence of the text into 1-3 sentences?

I've been in a long-distance relationship for about 10 months and I think it is time for it to come to an end. We see each other, on average, once per month and the last visit (this past weekend) made me realize that we aren't right for each other and our personalities clash too much to be comfortable in the long term.

I'm going to go through with this regardless but I'm certainly not making another trip down just to say "it's over" as the travel costs are about $300. Being my first relationship, it is also going to be my first breakup, so I could use some advice.

Recently, since we've both been busy, our main source of contact has been via text message. Phone and video calls have been scarce recently due to how busy we both are.

Anyway, I could use suggestions. I'm going to take a stab at saying that a phone call is my best option; however, I don't know where to go from there.

We're 18.
