How to check if someone has blocked us on Facebook?
Overview
It doesn't feel good when you
suddenly see a friend on your Facebook friend list. This may cause a bit of
confusion in your mind as to why the person is not on your friend list even if
they have deactivated the account or removed you without giving you any reason.
Or if they have blocked you? Suppose if you suspect that someone has blocked you,
but you are not sure and want to check. Then read the whole article carefully.
In this post, you will learn about the methods that will help you find out who
has blocked you on Facebook.
If someone has blocked you, you
will not be able to tag them in any post. It also indicates that they have not
befriended you or blocked you. In addition, you will not be able to invite this
person to events or groups. Suppose you create an event, and you know you can't
invite that person, then it also shows that they haven't befriended or blocked
you. Also, you won't see their posts in your Facebook feed anymore. When
someone stops you, Facebook doesn't notify you in any way, so it can be
mysterious.
Also, if you try to send a
message, you will see an error message stating that the user is not available.
Well, it is important to note
here that if someone stops you, you need to respect their reasons for doing so.
There are times when someone stops you for no apparent reason and you feel like
something has happened that's why they blocked you.
Method 1:
- Select the search bar.
- Now, you'll need to tap or click on the "Search" white box at the top of the page.
- Open Facebook. To open Facebook, you need to tap on the Facebook app icon on your mobile or go to https://www.facebook.com/ on your desktop.
- Once you open Facebook, you will see your news feed if you are already logged in to Facebook.
- If you are not logged in, you will need to enter your email address and password before continuing.
- Next, type in the name of the person you think you blocked, then tap View Results for [Name] (Mobile) or press 'Enter' on the desktop.
Click the People tab at the top
of the page because sometimes people who have blocked you or deleted their
accounts will appear in the All tab of the search results, but they will not be
visible in the tab. Will not come If you can see the profile on the profile tab
of the search results, then it means that this person's profile is active, but
you have removed it or not just made you a friend. On the other hand, if you
can't find the profile, it means they've deleted your account or blocked you.
There is also the possibility that they have set their privacy settings so high
that you cannot find them on Facebook. If you can see the account, then try
tapping it or clicking it. If you are not blocked, you will see a limited view
of the profile.
Method 2:
Use mutual friend list truck:
Open Facebook and go to the
profile page of a friend who is also currently a friend of the person you
suspect you blocked. To visit a friend's page:
- Select the search bar.
- Enter your friend's name.
- Select their name in the dropdown box.
- Select their profile image.
- Now select the Friends tab (located below the photo grid near the top of your profile on mobile) and directly below their cover on the desktop.
Tap or click the "Find Friends" bar at the top of the screen (mobile) or at the top right of the Friends page (desktop). Enter the name of the person you think you blocked. After a while, the friends list should be refreshed with the results. If you see this person's name and profile picture in the results, it means they haven't blocked you. On the other hand, if you are unable to see the name and picture, then it means that this person has blocked you or deleted the account.
You can also check the status by
asking your friend which page you are on to verify the existence of the
account.
Conclusion:
So far, both above methods are
the best way to find out if you have been blocked. But one important suggestion
I want to make here is to be able to check your friend's other social media
accounts before making the worst assumptions. Another easy way to find out if
you've been blocked on Facebook is to check likes and comments on mutual
friends' situations. It can also help you find out if you have been blocked.
There is no clear status message
on Facebook that can confirm that you have been blocked by someone, but with
some tricks you can check to find out for yourself.
