How do you check deleted messages on facebook?

[Dude24]

My girlfriend caught me flirting with some other girls but i remember deleting the messages.But she said she has a "way" to see those deleted messages.She read me the deleted messages that I delete it was the EXACT same messages I deleted. She read some but theres some other ones I dont want her to read ! Im scared she will because she gave me another chance...How do I check those messages ?

Only way to read those msgs is to request that OTHER girl to send save messages from her msg box.
maybe ur girlfriend and that other girls are friend.

No, unfortunately you cannot retrieve deleted messages from Facebook.
Facebook does not store your deleted messages once you have selected them to be deleted.

Under the privacy act it is illegal for companies to store information you have requested to be removed. This means that sites such as Facebook have to remove the relevant saved server files once you have chosen to delete them.
It can take a few moments to a few days for the server to cycle; however, most companies such as Facebook are not willing to go into the deleted files to recover the data or see if the data can be recovered.

Basically, once you have deleted a message it will be gone forever. It happens as quickly as possible so as to make space for new messages. The size of Facebook's following means it is important that their system is continually refreshed by removing the old information so that new information can be stored. This is why once a message is deleted it will be gone within the next login.

There is a way to test the server, but this isn't a permanent solution. Sometimes you can hit the back button on your web browser and find your deleted messages are still there. However, this only works if you pressed the back button within seconds and you did not log out. This is because the back button only returns you to a page memory so the message will permanently disappear once you do log out.

You may find that, even after a few seconds, pressing the back button won't bring the message back; this just depends on how quickly things work for the day. It is best to be absolutely sure you want to delete a message before you do so.
