I would greet him like a long lost friend . "How come you don't write anymore?"
An elder gave me that look

made a very sad and disapproved face
How strange, I've often given you this same look but you just didnt see it.

Disheartened
Ah, yes. The look of disapproval. I have received it many times. Strangely, I also received the look of disapproval when I was attending "meetings" regularly, and doing everything right; according to WT satndards. I usually make it a point to stick my nose up at them. I remember a couple of years ago I attended a "gathering for the friends" (which I was tricked into attending by my cousin) and at the time I was (and still am) "inactive". One of the sisters there asked me what congregation I was in and when I told her "None, I'm not going right now"-I cleared that room like a fire alarm . All of a sudden everyone had to go home. So glad I left the phony "witnesses". The "friends", huh? Not my friends.

No Apologies
Outoftheorg.
Why let him off so easily? Why pretend you don't know each other?
Start chatting with him, how's it going, I am good, etc. His reaction will tell you much.

Yeah No Apols. That Is what I intend to do. I usually don't waste my time with them and the shunning thing.
But who knows???? Maybe he has seen some "new light".
