Online "dating" that involves texting is just such a terrible fit.
Most people either have poor reading comprehension or lack ability to write clearly, and that's the worst combo for relationship building.
It's really no surprise that "dating" apps devolve into clicking a picture and hooking up for sex.

Dyslexia is a real thing, and there are other challenges, but when I got a bad feeling from her written communication it boded very badly for a date. I don't date men, but the women I've dated often say that's their experience as well. Of course, those are women who also matched my communication style, so that may not generalize.
