A part of the problem is that people place high and lofty expectations on the ministry... and when their picture of that is dimished for whatever reason the relationship becomes tarnished... and is in jepordy...
I think that there is a line that shouldn't be crossed in Pastor/Saint relationship but that should never be a divide for unfriendliness...
I've been in some churches where the Pastor/wife were just downright unfriendly...
and some (growing) are the friendliest folks in the world...
