Some people are offended when you offer them anything. My husband while usually very generous, is not a very gracious receiver. He will argue with people, I'm still working on that one - he tells me "but they don't have to do that" he struggles with the understanding that just because he didn't NEED them to pay for his lunch or whatever doesn't mean that for whatever reason they didn't NEED to do it.
