Have I been blocked on WhatsApp?

I’ve looked online for the answer, but still not sure.

The person who I think might have blocked me was last seen yesterday afternoon, even though they’re usually online quite frequently.

I can still see their last seen and profile pic.

Could they have blocked me?

Not if you can see their last online, you're not blocked no.

DizzySue · 25/05/2019 20:40

No you haven't been blocked. You wouldn't see their profile picture or 'last seen'

Fluffsters · 25/05/2019 20:47

Thank you for quick replies!

Is it possible to ‘freeze’ your last seen time? 🤔

No

What is it that's made you think they've blocked you?

Fluffsters · 25/05/2019 20:57

I split up with my boyfriend yesterday morning. My decision.

I was out all day today. When I got back he’d put some stuff (picture of us and all the cards I’d given him) in my (outside) postbox.

I’m not looking for sympathy as it was my choice to end the relationship.

Just wondered if he’d blocked me on WhatsApp.

It sounds like you're still hung up on him, I hope you made the right decision

Ilovemylabrador · 25/05/2019 21:08

What a strange thing for him to do. I’d delete him and move on - whether he’s on SM or not is not relevant to you - sounds like you are more interested than you should be

Block him before you change your mind!

I see what you’re saying but I know I’ve made the right decision.

Ilovemylabrador

I was very upset when I found the stuff today. (I gave him his things, that had been at my flat, toothbrush etc., yesterday, but I didn’t give him all the cards he’d written me).

Yesterday he said he wanted to be friends with me which I said I’d be happy to do further down the line.

But I thought if he’d blocked me from WhatsApp then that was him saying, albeit not directly, that he’d changed his mind and wanted nothing more to do with me.

I have thought about doing this...

Your question re WhatsApp has been answered. But I don't find it weird that you have asked, unlike some commentors. Nor do I find it weird that he has returned cards etc. He is dealing with the break up in his own way. He may have asked to stay friends then changed his mind--again, nothing that odd, it is all still raw.
Sounds like it would be wise to leave him be for now and not check on him or anything like that.

Scarlettmaid · 25/05/2019 21:30

OP, are you worried about his welfare?

Otterhound · 25/05/2019 21:34

Perhaps a cathartic way of erasing you from his life.

The friends thing was probably an initial clutching at straws mechanism whicj he has thought better of, hence the above

Fluffsters · 25/05/2019 21:44

Scarlettmaid,

Thank you for your responses and understanding.

I do worry about his welfare. I don’t think he would do anything rash though.

Otter hound

You’re probably right.

AnchorDownDeepBreath · 25/05/2019 22:15

I don't think what he's done is that unusual. He's removing all traces of you because you've ended things and it hurts. Sitting reading the cards you sent will just hurt him. For you, as you've said, it hurts but you know you've done the right thing. He doesn't have that knowledge yet.
