How to see if someone blocked you on Facebook

Want to find out if you've been blocked on Facebook? You wake up one morning to discover that that you can't view a particular friend's profile, neither can you send messages and you are wondering if you have been blocked.


There are some way to find that out.The first thing to do to try to find his or her name on Facebook. If you can't find the profile even after trying to search by name, then there is something wrong.

Next thing to do is try to search the name through mutual friends, i.e, visiting the friends list of your mutual friends on Facebook. If you still can't find the person, this could be due to three probable reasons:

Your friend has blocked you, Your friend has deleted his profile, Your friend's account has been disabled either by him or Facebook following a violation of its standards. Here's how to see if someone blocked you on Facebook.

• How to Create New Facebook Account
• How to permanently delete your account

STEP 1: 

Check through the messages you've had with the person. You can expand the conversation by looking for them from the messages page. The photo of the person will show the default Facebook image (the white outline on blue background), but what should draw your interest is the name. If the name of the person is black, in bold and you can not click on it to visit the profile, then certainly, you've been blocked on Facebook by that person.

STEP 2:

Open a conversation with your friend and try to report it as spam. Re-open the message page and the conversation with the Facebook user. From the menu at the top right of the pop-up screens, tap on “Actions” choose “Report spam or abuse”.  From the new window that opens, choose “Report one or more participants in the conversation for harassment or threats, or to have a compromised account.” and click on ''OK''. If the next window reads “Operation prohibited” to the right of the name of the friend it means that friend has blocked you.

STEP 3:

This is by far the simplest and easiest method. Ask a mutual friend to view the profile of the friend who you think has blocked you, if he or she can access the said profile, then it most certain that you have blocked.

LAST WORDS

If after  you have employed these tricks, you discovered that a friend has blocked or removed you from his or her friend's list, don't feel irritated. If that person has decided to block you, he or she must have reasons for doing so and you should not allow it to interfere with or affect your friendship in real life. Facebook is just a social network, a virtual place to stay in touch, do not let Facebook ruin a friendship.
