Well, other than my parents giving me the cold shoulder, I have only seen, not spoken to, two witnesses from a distance in public. The first time was at my gym when I saw an elder from my wife's hall. I was coming in and he was going out. I just caught a glimpse of his face and it took me a few seconds to register who it was. By the time we had passed each other, it was already too late to say something. His glance at me probably had him thinking, "Where do I know him from??" He probably realized who he passed after he went outside. The other time was when I was coming out of the grocery store on a Sunday afternoon on my way to the Y for my vb league. The sister and her two little boys were dressed up and likely just got out of the meeting. I just walked through the door and she was coming in from the parking lot. She didn't notice me though(I don't think she did - she never made eye contact with me).
I'm coming up on two years of being df'd and these are the best examples I have of being "shunned." lol
