If you want to block a mutual friend on Facebook, here are the steps you can follow:
1. Go to the Profile of the Person:
– You can do this by searching for their name in the search bar or finding them through your friend list or mutual friends.
2. Click the Three Dots (“…”) Button:
– On their profile, look for the three dots located next to the “Message” button or at the top of their profile (depending on your device).
3. Select “Block”:
– From the drop-down menu, choose “Block”. A confirmation message will pop up asking if you’re sure you want to block this person.
4. Confirm Block:
– Click “Block” again to confirm. Once blocked, the person will no longer be able to see your posts, tag you, or interact with you on Facebook.
What Happens When You Block Someone on Facebook?
– The blocked person will no longer see your posts or profile.
– You will no longer see their posts or interactions on your feed.
– Mutual friends won’t be able to see if you’ve blocked someone unless they try to visit the blocked person’s profile or interact with them and notice that the relationship is now unavailable.
– If you share a mutual group, you might still see their comments in that group, but you won’t see each other’s posts.
Notes:
– Blocking is different from unfriending. Unfriending removes someone from your friend list, but they can still see your posts and interact with you unless you set privacy settings to limit visibility.
– You cannot block someone just based on mutual friends without blocking them directly. Blocking is always on a per-user basis.
If you’re concerned about privacy but don’t want to block someone completely, you can also adjust your privacy settings so that they see less of your content or interactions.
