Getting blocked by someone on Facebook is frustrating.

When you are blocked by someone on Facebook, there are few options to unblock yourself. In fact, unless the person unblocks you on their own, you can't become unblocked on your own. There is one thing that you can do, that requires setting up a new Facebook account. You can use your same name, but you must sign up with a different email address. Once the new account is set up, you can proceed to contact the person who blocked you. Keep in mind that the person may see your online attempts to contact her as harassment and may block your second account as well.
