57 views

While Facebook Messenger does not directly notify you when someone blocks you, there are indirect signs. You might be blocked if you can no longer see the person's profile picture, send them messages, or find their profile on Facebook. A message sent to a blocked contact will never show the 'Delivered' status. However, these indicators can also result from the person deactivating their account, so consider checking with mutual friends or trying to view their profile from a different account for confirmation.
