Little advice ladies

Long story short. My boyfriend and I haven’t been getting along the past couple days. Lots of bickering via text. Finally today I said I’m done fighting about it over the phone. I’ve said from day one I prefer sitting down together, face to face, to talk/ figure out the issue at hand. He just told me our relationship is weak because we have to talk in person instead of texts. ‘ what can be said in person that we can’t say over text?’ Am I wrong for thinking face to face is a better way of communication?
