There is nothing worse than finding yourself stranded in cold weather. Whether you’ve been locked out of your house or your car broke down, being in these kinds of situations in the middle of the winter is the worst.
One woman was so desperate for help after a fight with her abusive boyfriend left her locked out of her home that she took a ride from a stranger who seemed helpful. However, he ended up being the total opposite.
A few years back, she attended a party with her boyfriend at the time, who was toxic and abusive towards her.
He got jealous and angry about something at the party and threw her out of the house as soon as they got home. It was around 2 AM, and she didn’t have her purse, phone, or wallet.
All she was wearing was what she had on at the party. She banged on the front door and begged to be let back in, but her boyfriend wouldn’t answer. He just turned off all the lights in the house and left her there.
She was anxious about going to a neighbor’s house. There weren’t that many people in the area, to begin with, and she didn’t want to wake anyone out of their sleep. But after what ended up happening to her, it turns out that would have been her best option.
After standing out in the cold for a while, she decided she would walk to the closest gas station. It was just under a mile away, and there would be a phone she could use to call a friend. But while walking to the gas station, she was freezing cold.
Suddenly, a white pickup truck that had passed her on the opposite side of the road stopped and made a U-turn. It pulled up right next to her.
Inside was a man who asked her what she was doing out so late. She politely told him that she was meeting her friend at the nearby gas station.
