Am I blocked?

Posting here for traffic...

Yes I know it's childish, I shouldn't give a toss etc, but can anyone help me work out if I've been blocked on FB please?

Person in question has vanished from friends list. They still show up on search bar, but if I click to access profile it comes up as not available. They are still on my messenger, which shows they've been active today?

My first thought was that they'd deactivated profile, but now I'm wondering if I've been blocked!

Any thoughts from the more technically minded out there?

I'd see her unfriending as a good thing. Why would you be that nosey??

[HurricaneHalle]

IME of being blocked is you won't get a result from a search of their name even if the search bar auto fills for you.

I thought this had happened to me! But no, you can deactivate your account and stay on messenger. Your MIL's name will still come up on search because there will be some historic stuff she has been tagged in which will remain on Facebook even though she's not.

My future mil unfriended me as she chose to be offended by my use of the word cunt about six years before she had even met me. She trawled back through my Facebook and must have read every single comment ever as when dp told me it took me a while to go through and work out what the hell she was talking about.

*Or deactivated

I would say defriended and has her profile set to private or something rather than blocked - if you're blocked, you can't even see them in search (I hope, as I blocked my ex and the last time I heard from him after months of no contact, he said something oblique about having been checking what DB was up to, so if he searched for him, he had prob searched for me).

I would also say passive aggressive twat and sorry you're going to have to deal with her shit throughout your marriage :(

My account is currently deactivate but I still have messenger.

I searched for myself on dh's phone but couldn't find me

What point is she tryig to make? Is she against the wedding?

[Deadsouls]

You can deactivate your account and still be on messenger. I've done it. FB gives you that option when you deactivate.

I un friended a load of people recently because I realised I posted pictures of my kids and details of my life and had forgotten about the lurking people I no longer saw or spoke to. I decided to delete them all - weird to have them on there really.

Do people block/unfriend for absolutely no reason?

[IcaMorgan]

I can recommend someone who can make and deliver a cake to London. She's a friend of a friend and is making my cake for my wedding in July

[didodogs]

I hear you shitgibbon but unfortunately I knowill is hastill everything to do with DP and I. She's through sort of person who lives and breathes social media and she's definitely making a point.

That's fine though. I shall just ignore as people have suggested

[shitgibbon]

She has deactivated her profile. If you're blocked you can't even see the profile in search.

Her deactivating her account may have absolutely nothing to do with you though. She maybe just doesn't want Facebook any more. A lot of people don't enjoy social media, and she's not wrong to not want a profile.

[LouKout]

It really doesn't sound like you were blocked.

[fabulous01]

Blocked. But really why on earth do you want to be friends with her on Facebook.

[Smiler2013]

Yip, you can keep messenger after deactivating 😊

[Emmageddon]

I blocked someone who I had considered a friend, but she made a horrific racist statement after the Brexit referendum and I decided that she wasn't that good a friend. I forgot to block her on my phone or WhatsApp and she harassed me for days, wanting to know what she had done wrong.

If future MIL has blocked you, ignore, ignore, ignore.

Just saw youre in London, sadly I'm in West Scotland but I can make a mean wedding cake, I've did 3 now for friends! Do not rely on her. I know some people will say "It's only cake" but it is a big tradition and cutting it together as a married couple is an important photo opportunity.

[Sylvannas]

I'd have a second cake standing by.
Don't even mention her FB page. Sounds like she may want a rise from you. I'd make sure the wedding could function without her in case she 'forgets' the cake.

[Wando1986]

OP create a 2nd account. If you can see her profile as normal on the fake account then she had blocked you on your normal one. If you can't then she's deactivated

[sonjadog]

I think I would take this as a blessing in disguise! Now you know she is not to be relied on and can plan for someone else to make your wedding cake.

[didodogs]

If she'd unfriended me then I would be able to get onto her profile though Noeuf

I'm in London Fanciedachange but thank you. Perhaps I should move wedding to Yorkshire to shake off MIL?

NervousNellie your MIL is the pits

[CherriesInTheSnow]

You can definitely de-activate your facebook profile and still use messenger, my OH thought a good friend had blocked him because of this same scenario and was really confused as could still reach him on messenger, turns out he had just got rid of his profile :)

[Fanciedachange17]

I know someone on facebook who makes gorgeous cakes but you'd need to be up in the Yorkshire area for delivery. If you are I'll post a link.

Do all your planning without relying on her. If she does bring a cake, use it and donate one to a local hospital for the nursing staff to enjoy.
