If you delete and block someone on fb, yet you have mutual actual friends can they see your comments and likes on mutual friends fb ?

I think they may see 7 people like this comment but when they click on it they only see six.

No, they are dead to you. Nor can they see you listed as a friend on your mutual friend's friends list.

They may however, still be able to see when you are tagged in a post on your friend's page, but your name will show up un-bolded, and they won't be able to click on it.

I always wondered that too! What if you go snooping, have no mutual friends and have yourself as visible only to friends of friends? Do you appear on their people you may know list?

I have no idea as I immediately block anyone whose FB profile I've nosied at looked at where we have no mutual friends. Don't want any old nemesis/friend from school thinking I actually sought out their FB profile even if I did. 😊

Not sure PPs are right. I know my delightful brother has deleted and blocked me, yet I can see him on mutual friends list of friends and if I click on someone else’s post that he’s liked, I’ll see that he’s liked it.

ButchyRestingFace · 08/10/2018 22:22

Well, I can't speak for what happens on your FB page. But on mine, I can't see anyone I've blocked or who has blocked me on mutual friends list of friends or anything they've liked.

Are you sure he blocked you and hasn't just removed you and made himself unsearchable by name/email address?

sammylady37 · 09/10/2018 20:17

^ tbh, I assumed once you’d deleted someone you automatically blocked them, so maybe I’m wrong on that. Not gonna contact my brother to confirm whether he’s actually blocked me or not tho’!

If you can see he has a profile on Facebook, he hasn't blocked you. You cannot see they exist on FB if you are blocked.

MacosieAsunter · 09/10/2018 20:57

No, but if you are in a group and one of you is admin, you can see each others comments but not profiles.

madeoficecream · 09/10/2018 21:00

yes, but they cannot see that they are yours... ie it will say '7 people like this' but only list 6 names... or '7 comments' but only actually show 6.

If its something you did or wrote on a mutual friends post, before you blocked them then your comment and name will still appear but be in back and not able to be clicked on.
