I'm going to give a $1 tip to a sketch artist on the nyc subway.
Is there an underlying reason for you to give the artist money? I know exactly the guy you are referring to. I see him all the time.
He was able to make me feel guilty I guess.
Lots of people get roped into feeling guilty, but giving someone money to keep your guilt at bay, like an artist looking for money on a subway, is a bad way to handle your guilt. Don't fall into the trap of letting this person manipulate you.
I couldn't help it. He did a great job at.
And that is how he manipulates people so they will give him money, because you are too nice of a person. It's a psychological tactic, and you are falling right into his tricks. I'd just walk away whenever I saw him on the subway.
