How To Know If You're Blocked On Facebook Messenger
If you suspect that you may have been blocked by someone on
Facebook Messenger, there are several signs and methods you can use to confirm
this. Keep in mind that Facebook doesn't provide a direct notification when
someone blocks you, but the following signs can be indicators:
- Messages
Not Delivered:
- One
of the most common signs is that your messages are not being delivered.
When you send a message to someone who has blocked you, it will remain
marked as "Sent" but will not show as "Delivered."
- Profile
Picture and Name Not Visible:
- If
you were previously friends with the person, but now you can't see their
profile picture or name in your Messenger conversation, it might be a
sign that you've been blocked.
- No
Online Status:
- When
someone blocks you, you won't be able to see their online status (active
or recently active) in Messenger.
- Search
Results:
- Try
searching for the person's name in Messenger's search bar. If they've
blocked you, their name may not appear in the search results.
- Check
Mutual Friends:
- Visit
the person's Facebook profile (if you can still access it). Look at their
list of friends. If you have mutual friends, check if those mutual
friends can still see the person's profile and interact with them.
- Try
Calling:
- Attempt
to make a voice or video call through Messenger. If you're blocked,
you'll receive an error message stating that the call couldn't be
completed.
- Message
Request Indicator:
- If
you send a message to someone who has blocked you, your message may move
to the "Message Requests" section rather than the normal chat
area.
- Profile
Visits:
- If
you suspect someone has blocked you, visit their Facebook profile (if
it's still accessible). If you can't see their profile details or posts
and they have not made their profile private, this could be an indicator.
- Ask
a Mutual Friend:
- If
you have a mutual friend who is still in contact with the person you
suspect has blocked you, you can ask them to check the person's Messenger
status or inquire if they are still connected.
- Create
a New Account (Not Recommended):
- This
is not recommended, but some users attempt to create a new Facebook
account and search for the person they believe blocked them to see if
they can find their profile. However, this is against Facebook's terms of
service, and creating fake accounts can lead to your accounts being
banned.
Remember that these signs are not foolproof, and there could
be other reasons for the behaviors mentioned above. People often change their
privacy settings or go offline for various reasons. If you suspect you've been
blocked, it's essential to respect the other person's decision and privacy. If
you have concerns or conflicts with someone, consider addressing them through
other means or seeking resolution in a respectful manner.
