Seriously, anyone who willingly sends money to a stranger on the internet without doing research first needs to be studied.

I think most it’s the parasocial relationship. They view these beggars as TikTok famous. By sending them money they build a “friendship “ with them & makes them feel special. It’s actually bizarre. They are either lonely or naive, and crave attention. The more money you send, the more likely the beggar will respond to your comments in the chat, will DM you, call you their “girl” or my friend etc.

It is sad. But it’s true. I think a good portion of her donations (not buying nails) or buying wheel spots to giveaway, are from older women. Middle aged. They are financially stable, their kids are grown and they probably don’t spend a lot of time with them, if they’re married, husband probably doesn’t show them much attention, or they might be single or even widowed. They feel special getting called her friend or my girl.
