How to unblock someone on Facebook

This story is about redemption. Everybody makes mistakes and sometimes, those mistakes can lead to blocking someone on Facebook.
It's best to be professional. Facebook friends will automatically end if you block someone. If you suddenly feel the generosity of spirit, there are ways to forgive and forget. This is called "unblocking" someone on Facebook.

Unblocking someone does not mean they have access to your posts publicly. However, it does not mean you are now friends on Facebook with them. You must send them a friend request to do this. Facebook's help centre has more information about adding friends and blocking.
