Has anyone ever had a priest shun them or treat them any differently after confession?

No. I can be face to face in the confessional one day and face to face taking care of some other business in the church office the next day, and it is like the confession was in a whole 'nother place with a whole different person.

Not in a bad way. After I made my big general confession (which I made face-to-face), I felt more familiarity between myself and my priest – I was no longer just another face in the large crowd he would see on Sunday mornings. I certainly felt no condemnation from him; rather, I felt acceptance and compassion. 🙂
