How do I find out the email address or phone number used for my Facebook account?
When you create a Facebook account, Facebook provides you with a personalized URL to your account profile. It will look like this:
https://www.facebook.com/username
If you don’t remember your username, ask your friend to browse your Facebook account and provide you with your personalized profile URL. This will be shown in his browser once he browses your Facebook account.
Tell your friend to browse your account and see your contact information from there. The contact information will be available in the About section of your profile.
