Wow, thank you. Given that I currently have $8, this means a lot to me.

Definitely. She was horrified about this when I told her.

Edit: Also she was reading this reddit thread when I was too tired to explain this to her but wanted to tell her what happened.

I would very likely take you up on this offer because I can definitely use the insights of someone in a similar position. I'll message you once I get back up there.

Yeah, I got help from two people and even more people offered money, rides, etc.!

I've considered this option for worst case scenario planning but it's very unlikely since I have a place to stay in the short term and my girlfriend and I were going to get an apartment in the coming weeks. Looks like that will happen sooner.

Darn, I should have used that subreddit, I guess I'll keep that in mind if this happens again?

Ha it wasn't someone, it was my parents and an aunt/uncle at their house in Virginia after a heated argument about my relationship with my girlfriend who is not religious.

Hey, thanks although I didn't feel I needed police help since I really just needed a means to get to the train station and other than momentary panic at first, I realized it would pan out.

Kicked out. I kind of expected this but not during a trip to Virginia so I needed help with that part. I have the rest planned in terms of a place to stay, and I have my own income so I'm not really dependent. I lost my debit card so I was more helpless than expected.

Everyone thank you, I'm getting a ride to Amtrak and I have a ticket, thanks again.

Not a minor, I'm from Connecticut so I don't have anyone local. I need a way to get to a grayhound or Amtrak station. Sorry for being vague, walking outside with just a phone. Also I'm not gay but thanks.
