In most cases, you cannot tell if someone deleted your message on Messenger without reading it. Facebook Messenger doesn't notify senders if a message has been deleted. Unless you directly ask the person or they tell you they've deleted your message, there’s no way to know for sure. The only notifications you might receive are read receipts, if the recipient has them enabled, letting you know they've seen the message.
