My neighbor is in her 70s. I’m in my late 20s and live in the apartment upstairs from her, so when it snows I like to help clean off her car/shovel out her parking spot. Today she tried to pay me after I helped her. I don’t want to accept the money, but want her to still feel comfortable asking for help/not feel like she’s taking advantage of me. How should I go about this? Maybe ask her for something small so she feels like she’s helping me too? It’s never any trouble helping her with the snow removal, it never takes more than half an hour
Thanks for being a good person. It feels good doing something nice for someone, don’t deny her that same good feeling. My suggestion is take the money and spend it on rock salt. I try to help people from time to time, my parents are 80. I can’t be there for them all the time so my hope is that if I help others maybe fate/god/cthulhu will send someone to help them
