I received a friend request at iMessage with a message, which I read - but did not answer/accept immediately. When later trying to find it, I cannot... And now I would really like to get in touch with the person who sent it. Is that possible? Or does the request and message disappear after I read it?

Hi DeviMahani.
Thanks for following up. Unfortunately, in this case there would be no way of locating the sender.
Cheers.
Thanks for your reply!
I do not know the name of the person sending the request, which is the problem. So, I was hoping the message, sent to/received by my phone would be traceable… Kind regards, Annika
