How to Keep From Seeing Someone's Comments on Your Facebook

With over 750,000 members of Facebook, it isn't surprising that occasionally a user wants to block another user from seeing his profile. Whether one of those people is an ex-girlfriend, ex-boyfriend, former spouse or someone who has been stalking you on the site, you can block the individual to immediately cease all contact with him on Facebook.

Things You'll Need

• Facebook account

Instructions

1. Log in to your Facebook account.

2. Click on the "Account" menu in the upper right corner of the page and select "Privacy Settings" from the drop-down menu.

3. Scroll to the bottom of the Privacy Settings page and click on "Manage Block Lists."

4. Type the name or email address of the individual you wish to block on Facebook in the "Block users" section at the top of the page.

5. When you confirm the block, you and the blocked individual can no longer see each other's profile or communicate on Facebook.

Tips & Warnings

• To make sure the block was successful, go back to your home page and view a wall post where the blocked person's comments previously showed up. If they are no longer appearing the block was successful. If the comments are still appearing, go back and double-check the steps and try the block again.

• Blocks don't apply to apps you play or groups you belong to. It is possible, if you belong to the same group or play the same app, you may have additional contact with the blocked user.
