How to know if I've been blocked on Facebook

The social network Facebook allows you to send messages to your friends, comment on their wall or see their personal information, but what happens when you can't do these actions?

Just like you can block on Facebook, other users can too block you to prevent you from communicating with them. However, how can you confirm that you have indeed been blocked and that it is not a platform failure?

In this guide we explain the details you should consider to know if you have been blocked on Facebook and, therefore, stop trying to contact a user who doesn't want a relationship with you (at least on Facebook).

Finally, let's examine if the ability to bypass this block to communicate with the friend who blocked you. We started!

Keep these things in mind to find out if someone has blocked you on Facebook.

You can't text him

One of the easiest ways to find out if someone has blocked you on Facebook is to try sending a message to that friend via Facebook Messenger.

Log into the chat and search for their conversation. If the his name appears in black instead of blue, it means you can't text him and he probably blocked you.

You cannot see their information

If you could see a friend's wall before and not now, the conclusion is clear: he blocked you from Facebook and does not want you to have access to that information.

This applies if the person added you as a friend, otherwise they might simply having changed his privacy and only friends can see his wall.

You cannot comment on their wall

Let's continue on the bulletin board of the friend you suspect to explain another detail indicating that he has blocked you: you cannot comment on his wall.

That's right, if in addition to not seeing their information or activity, you can't post to their Facebook wall, everything indicates that they've blocked you.

We repeat that this applies when you have already added that user as a friend on the social network. If not, that person may have set it up only your friends to view and comment on your wall.

You don't appear on their friends list

The Facebook friends list is very enlightening and can confirm you in seconds if a contact has blocked you or not.

If a contact was on your friends list and isn't anymore, it's probably because they removed you from Facebook. Elimination is not synonymous with blocking, it may simply have been removed from your friends list as they are not interested in the content you post.

However, if you can't access their profile and your other friends can, it's a clear indication that they've blocked you.

I can't find her profile

This method requires a second Facebook account unknown to the person we are investigating. If you have blocked us, we will not be able to find your profile from the search engine of the platform.

Search his profile with another Facebook account, if you have access to the contact in that account, it means that he has blocked you.

Your name still appears in shared games

The last detail you can check to see if a Facebook friend has blocked you is in the Games section. To do this, you have to having shared a game recently.

Since some games are not updated to the latest changes, you can take advantage of them and join the game you were playing together. If the friend's name still appears there, but you can't text him and you don't appear on his friends list, chances are he blocked you.

Is it possible to avoid blocking?

Is there a way to get around the Facebook block?

No, it is not possible to avoid blocking a friend who has blocked your Facebook account so that you cannot text him, post on his wall or share games with you.

The only thing you can do is accept the block and leave that contact alone, because he wanted it to be putting a barrier between them on Facebook.
