If someone does not respond to your messages for a long time, such as WhatsApp or Telegram, you will probably sooner or later suspect that he has blocked you. In this case, instead of raising suspicions, it’s better to check a few signs that will give you confidence that the user has blocked you in a given messenger.
Read on to find out how to check if someone has blocked you on WhatsApp, Telegram or Facebook Messenger.
How to check if someone has blocked you on WhatsApp or Telegram
At the beginning we will only point out that there is no way that will 100% confirm that someone blocked you on WhatsApp or Telegram . However, you can check out some facts that suggest whether you are probably blocked or not.
- Last seen
If the information about the time of your friend’s recent activity has always been visible but you can’t see it now , it may suggest that the friend has blocked you. However, this is very weak evidence, because your friend could simply change his privacy settings. You can do this at any time in the WhatsApp Privacy settings . Therefore, it’s better to check the following signs below before you think someone has blocked you.
- Unread messages
If it’s really been a long time and you still have only one marker next to your message , it may suggest that your friend has blocked you. As a reminder: one gray tag = message sent, two gray tags = message delivered, two blue tags = message displayed by the recipient.
- No profile photo
Another sign that someone has blocked you is that instead of his profile picture, which has always been visible until now, you only see an empty avatar . If you see all three of the above signs, it’s likely that the person has blocked you.
- Unable to connect or join the group
Try to make a voice call (the handset icon in the chat window with the contact). If the connection cannot be established , this is another proof of blocking.
The same applies if you want to add this person to the group. Create a test group and click select the contact in the “Add participants” window. If an error occurs that prevents this person from being added to the group , the likelihood of blocking is quite high.
How to check if someone has blocked you on Facebook Messenger
Facebook and Messenger are inextricably linked to blocking – if someone blocks you on Messenger, you’ll also lose access to his Facebook profile , and vice versa.
To check if a person has blocked you, try searching for their Facebook profile . If it is not displayed, ask someone to search for that person’s profile using their account. If the profile doesn’t appear only on you, it’s likely that the owner has blocked you.
You can also check if someone has blocked you directly in Facebook Messenger. Open a chat window with this person. If you see a message that this person cannot receive messages at this time, you can see that this is another proof that this user has blocked you and does not want to contact you.
