I post about once a year on facebook but I look at it usually once ot twice a day. My friends are people from high school from the 1970's and my current friends from classes I'm currently taking. Last week I noticed I hadn't seen anything from a certain old high school friend and went to check her out. She doesn't show up anywhere as in, completely gone from facebook. I know she didnt die because people would have said so my question is.....did she block me? Or unfriend me?

You can temporarily suspend your account on Facebook. That might have been the reason.

She could have deleted/closed/suspended her account.

I googled her name and a facebook listing appeared. When I clicked on it I got this.

Have you looked in your Friends list to see if she is still there? If she has unfriended you, she will no longer be on the list.

She's no longer on my friends list. Do you get a notice if you are unfriended?

She has either suspended her account or blocked you. If she had unfriended you and left her account active you would see her publicly available posts/info when you looked her up. That is the notice that goes up when a person suspends their account. It is also what you get if someone not on your friends list has you blocked.
Personally, I'd be pretty skeeved by someone who wants to be on my friends list but doesn't participate more than once a year. I"m not into people lurking in my private life.

Is she connected to the military or sensitive gov't office?
A friend of mine has a DH in the military. When he started working at the Pentagon, she couldn't post any pictures of him, or his name, or anything about him.
Then last year she had literally 24 hours to close down her Facebook page. We saw her at DD's wedding a couple weeks ago, and she felt bad that she couldn't warn any of us ahead of time, but it happened so suddenly she couldn't do anything about it. I need to get her email address from her daughter (who is still allowed on facebook, so far).

I just dont do much that warrants posting about. I always respond to her posts about stuff and wish her happy birthday once a year. I "like" her when she posts something about herself. Im in a group of high school friends because we do reunions every 5 years and the people that live in our hometown still go out every once in a while. Its just nice to see old friends. oh well, it doesnt really matter.

I noticed a friend of mine missing from FB too - he deactivated his account. I don't know why but I am sure he had his reasons.

If someone has blocked you, they will not show up when you search their name on FB.

But they DO post something every few days about their lives or an article of interest to discuss so the online relationship is reciprocal instead of one way (you watching me) It really would make me wonder why someone is obviously watching what I do (and by you liking everything I do know you ARE watching) but you don't return that openness in any way. I find that creepy.

By at least liking her posts, it shows you have an interest in her life. It's Facebook, what is there so important to say? I guess you could repost a shared article that's been shared a thousand times or say you are eating a sandwich to reciprocate.

He posts pictures maybe twice a year. I actually prefer my more quiet friends, I don't get creeped out by people who aren't as active on their own pages. The Google cache can still show a listing for her profile even if she has deactivated her account.

No. There is no notice. if you install FB purity you will get a pop up notification of friends that are no longer on your list. If you see the person like "John Doe" here that means he's turned off his account, or blocked you. If you can still see a profile picture that is a true unfriending.

It is not part of facebook proper. Facebook doesn't send out a notice, like they do when someone is added to your list.

I don't think I'd even notice I don't find it skeeve-worthy personally, I'd just assume some innocent reason unless they'd given me reason to think they were stalking me
