How to ignore someone on Facebook Messenger?

 

 I am going to explain how to ignore someone on Facebook Messenger. There are times when a contact may be bothering us, and we do not want to continue reading what they write to us, so Messenger gives us the option to ignore it and have their messages appear only in the message suggestions section, where you will have to accept them to read them actively. There are two ways to ignore contact on Facebook Messenger. On the one hand, you can do it from the main screen, and on the other, from the conversation you are having with that person. We will explain both ways, and also how to accept messages from that contact again later.

The easiest way to ignore contact is to do it from the main Messenger menu. Once there, press and hold your finger on the connection you want to ignore until a pop-up window appears with several options. In this pop-up window, you will have several things you can do related to the contact, from unchecking the double blue read tick to blocking it. However, we want to stop it, that is, here click on the Ignore messages option and voila, you will have ignored this person.

When a person who ignored you writes, Facebook takes their messages to the category of Requests, from where you can stop ignoring them. To go there, press the Contacts option (1) that you have at the bottom with the icon of two busts. Then, press the Requests button (2) that will appear at the top. On the message request screen, look in the Filtered messages section. That is where the messages sent by the people you have ignored will appear, and to accept them, you have to press the ✓ icon that will appear next to you.
