Here\u2019s the first: <\/span><b>look at your chat history with this person<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">. It\u2019s one of the most effective tests to know if a user has blocked you on Facebook. To do this, you only have to search for a conversation you had with the person in question and see what appears. If it doesn\u2019t let you send a message, they\u2019ve blocked you, plain and simple. On the other hand, if they appear as <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><b>Facebook User<\/b><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, then they\u2019ve deleted their account.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Another tip for knowing if somebody has blocked you is to <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><b>search for them on Google<\/b><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">. Put their name and last name in the famous search engine and look at the profiles that show up in the results. <\/span><b>If clicking on one of them gives you an error, <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">then they\u2019ve blocked you too.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Finally, another foolproof method is <\/span><b>photo tagging or comparing searches<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">. The first is as easy as searching for a snapshot that has you both tagged. If their name appears, but the link to see their profile doesn\u2019t, it\u2019s likely because they\u2019ve blocked you. For the second, ask a friend to search for the name of the person you think has shunned you. If his\/her account appears for your friend, but not for you, it\u2019s clear you\u2019ve been blocked.<\/span><\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align:center; width:100%; margin:12px 0;\">\r\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n  google_ad_client = \"ca-pub-8132844949421936\";\r\n  var google_ad_slot = '9677578764';\r\n  if (window.innerWidth <= 470) {\r\n    google_ad_width = 300;\r\n    google_ad_height = 50;\r\n  }\r\n  else if (window.innerWidth < 1360) {\r\n    google_ad_width = 468;\r\n    google_ad_height = 60;\r\n  }\r\n  else {\r\n    google_ad_width = 728;\r\n    google_ad_height = 90;\r\n  }\r\n<\/script>\r\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\"\r\nsrc=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/show_ads.js\">\r\n<\/script>\r\n<\/div>\n<p><b>Do you have another way to find out if somebody has blocked you?
