Minister's Ministers?

[cadfael]

Ministers are people too. We/they have needs, desires, problems, and unfortunately, crises, just like everybody else. Who can they turn to without creating a dual relationship, i.e. minister/friend, friend/confessor, friend/therapist, etc.?

I almost always turn to someone with a dual relationship, for religion specific things I turn to my friends within the tradition of appropriate rank to discuss whatever's involved, for other things it's friends and lovers regardless of tradition. Because I view the world for a peer-based vantage point, this tends to work out well, although almost all my relationships are complex :)
