Starbright78 Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 I don't know if anyone else realizes it because I sure didn't. On the iPhone it keeps all of the text messages I have sent and received even though I deleted them. I was so good and made sure to delete everything the day I broke it off with AP and it took one simple accidental swipe on my phone to see them all again. I've been struggling lately and to see those conversations really brought me down tonight. I googled to see how to get rid of text messages still in the spotlight search and it's saying something about a factory reset but I am not sure if that works or not. Memories suck, especially reliving ones that I wish I could forget. It sure doesn't help someone in NC to see an old text where he is proclaiming how much he misses you..even if you found out later he's a jerk. Link to post Share on other sites
minimariah Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 factory reset definitely works - but be careful, that will erase everything on your phone, from messages to vids and contacts and pictures, notes... it'll be just like the very 1st time you got the phone, unopened. sorry you're going through it, hang on.

I know, I really don't want to do that. There has to be another way, I'm going to search some more and see if something else will work. Link to post Share on other sites

TunaCat Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 About a month or two after I was dumped, I was scrolling through my pictures & screeenshots when I stopped dead. I had taken screenshots of the texts he had sent me when he was telling me that he loved me and wanted to be with me forever and that I was the only one for him and always had been (we were childhood friends) I swear I nearly threw up. Right there. But instead I had a meltdown, reminiscent of my 3 year old niece when she's tired. It. Was. Awful. Link to post Share on other sites
