Honestly, you should never feel bad about being a tough negotiator. Any employer who would hold it against you is NOT someone you want to work for. Trust me. Hiring managers who want to hire you typically don't have a personal stake in what you're paid, within reason (unless it's a small business and they're the owner). So there's nothing insulting to the person you're negotiating with. It's just a business discussion. Like deciding which paper vendor to go with. It's almost completely unemotionally charged for them, even though it definitely isn't for you.

From my experience, if you're ambivalent about a price, the hiring manager will overshoot by a little bit. I've been negotiating freelance contracts, and on the one contract where I refused to name a price, the manager offered me double my typical rate...
