It's a real art to not getting too close to your neighbors, especially those that you have helped get there. I relate! Had an incident this early summer where a gal kept showing up at my door asking me to come over. It was during a very busy time for me, and she just wouldn't let up. I love to be with people, but I also need personal time and my home is it.

I often end up being friends with people who were clients, but there hasn't been anything that was weird or awkward and thankfully so.

Yep I have that going on now in a very strange way. So far it isn't too bad (at least on my end), but this is a guy client, and he's married. This is a small town. I don't go out of my way to say 'hello' to this guy when I see him in town. I avoid him, and that's not how I would normally treat past, present or future clients.

Introduce them to your other friend.

You know that insistent recruiter for the local chapter of "Everyone loves Yukele's" or Thi Chi Society or HOA membership/activities chair person.

Remember, you sold the community because of the friendly and helpful neighbors.

Like so many have shared, it is increasingly difficult to tend the relationships we have with the erratic schedules we keep.
