The aforementioned information is for those who do not know anything about Facebook dating. In this article, we will be discussing what Facebook dating is, how to get it back you’re your dating profile after deleting it and how to create it as a first-time user.
What is Facebook Dating?
Facebook dating is just like an in-built tinder app embedded in Facebook. It creates matches connecting people in the extraordinary cycle we call “Love”. You can send private messages and chat with people but it doesn’t really lose its Facebook charm and more.
Long-term relationships can, have, and will continue to be created using the Facebook dating app. If you are also not looking for anything serious but just want to connect with the right people, it is also the right place for you.
How to get back to Facebook Dating
First, it would be good to know that any information put into your Facebook dating profile, or chats and will be lost and cannot be recovered. That is, you cannot get them back once your account/profile has been deleted.
Second, in the case that you wish to create a new account/ profile, for dating again on Facebook, or you are new in general to the whole Facebook dating thing, a guideline will be provided in this article to fix that little problem.
What happened to my Facebook Dating Profile After I Deleted it?
As stated earlier, deleting your Facebook dating profile cause only you to lose every single piece of information put in it, including your dating answers, likes, matches, and conversations had with matches.
Though you will be losing all information your matches will still have access to all your conversations with them. Deleting your profile will not deny them access to your chats with them.
If you do wish to get back to dating on Facebook dating, you will need to wait seven days to create a new profile all over again. If you do try to create an account before then you may receive a message saying:
Limit Reached
However, you can’t create a new dating profile at this time because you deleted your account in the last seven days. You can try again later. You may not see this message on older versions of Facebook though.
