Ending a relationship (non serious)

When you are ending things with someone kindly and trying to detach without ghosting them, how much detail is actually required? In my mind it’s not been going very well for some time now and we have plodded on a few more weeks than we should have.

I think I have been quite clear. I am very busy, we want different things it’s no ones fault, I wish you luck. I haven’t been texting as much and am just not feeling it, incompatible. I’m stressed and am sorry I just don’t feel like I can take more on my plate and it isn’t fair on you.

I am being asked to provide further information/talk to them and I am avoiding this. I don’t think it’s worth saving so I don’t want to invest (waste) more of my time. Other party feels they deserve a lot more but I am anxious this is just to try to get me to change my mind. It’s only been a couple of months. I don’t want to go down the road of dissecting their personality to them to make my point stick with them. Why do I end up feeling like I am being horrible?

Just tell him that you like him but not enough for it to last any longer. Nothing to do with personality, more with chemistry

No I don't think you need to explain anymore than what you already have. He or she sounds as though they are upset it didn't work out, but I don't think explaining the finer details would really help.
You'd only been seeing each other a short while. Break ups are almost always pretty awkward. I would leave it now and not continue to text.
