• Then search for the person’s account among the search results, if you see the account and you are able to view the profile, then, you’ve not being blocked, maybe he/she just “unfriend” you but if you can’t find the person’s account, then maybe the person had deactivated his/her account or blocked you from viewing it.

THROUGH MUTUAL FRIENDS

• Visit the page a mutual friend which exist between you and the person you suspected blocked you
• Then click on “look friends” button. The list of his/her friends will popup 
• Search for the person’s name, if you can’t find it, then it means the person has deactivated the account but if it’s there, then it means you have been blocked by such person.

THROUGH MESSAGES

• This only works if you and the person you think might have blocked you have sent each other a message at least once.
• Click on the “message” button which opens the messenger 
• Click on the person’s conversation with you then click on the “(i)” symbol at the top right side of the page 
• Then search for the link to the person’s profile. If you do not find, then it means you have being blocked

But in order to avoid guessing wrong and misinterpretation, you can just ask a mutual friend directly if he/she is still very much active on Facebook or better still, you can confront the individual directly to get the most accurate answer.
