When the relationship is new, there is the "novelty" factor, which makes it extra stimulating and exciting. That will always wear off. Then what holds a couple together is the calmer, deeper interest in things that it takes time to know. Ask yourself if you are really taking an interest in the person you are with at that deeper level.
I don't know what you mean by saying that you might want to cut ties so that you can "focus" on where you are. If you cut ties, "where you are" will shift to somewhere else. What's to focus on? This sounds like gazing at your navel and kind of pointless.
When someone is new to us, they have the potential to be everything we ever dreamed of in a partner. Then we get to know them and see their limitations. Maybe that's what turns you off. But there are no dream partners out there. The good news is that a person you meet may have the potential to bring something good into your life that you didn't even know you needed. Discovering that takes time.
If you and this person you are currently dating are going to be geographically separated during the Summer, that's a real problem for both of you. Figure out if you can do anything about that to give this relationship more of a chance.
