If you’ve been a Facebook user for years, you probably have a folder full of unread messages that you didn’t even know existed. Yes, that\u2019s the \u201cMessage Requests\u201d folder. This is where Facebook sends all the messages from people you’re not currently friends with. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you want to review these messages, you have to click the Messenger icon. Click the three-dot menu icon and select\u00a0\u201cMessage requests\u201d. Finally, you’ll see all sorts of messages from strangers you probably did not know!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. See all the friends you requested <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Do you want to know who ignored or deleted your request that you have sent friend request on Facebook? Don\u2019t worry, Facebook has a feature that keeps track of that. Go to the app > friends > requests to see the list of the people who don\u2019t accept or ignore you request. Or maybe they just don’t check Facebook that much. Probably both.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
