Have you checked with your airline to see if you can catch another flight standby? I don't think they charge a change fee if you do that. It'll mean hanging out at the airport until you can get on a flight but it's better than nothing.

Devon-
Go to the airport and fly home standby. Explain the situation to the agent at the counter and I'm sure they will do their best to get you home. Take good care, M |

DevonNicole...
Try contacting the local YWCA. Sometimes they have the facilities to house people in a predicament or know where you can find temporary shelter. Hope that helps. |

Thanks everyone, I'm looking into finding numbers for all the local help.
And Lisa, I'm in uh..Rancho Palos Verdes? I googled it and you seem to be about 50 miles from where I am and I have no means of traveling that far unless I call a taxi or something, which would be expensive I presume... :( I appreciate you asking though |

This is exactly why you shouldn't fly across the country to visit someone you don't know... Call the cops and say he tried to rape you and then they will take him away and you will have his place until Friday ![]() This is exactly why women who say they were raped get a bad name. ![]() I cant believe anybody even wrote that! ![]() That's retarded. I've seen much worse things said and not get editted. Well how about this. have you ever been raped and had nobody believe you becasue the last girl who reported she was raped made it up. Ot how about being the cop who has to figure out if you are a lying (explitative deleted) or someone who really did get raped. Get a clue, they arent that expensive! |

I see alot of resourcefulness here, all you have to do is try, and be safe for sure.

Contact them. Ask for referals to organizations that can help you. Or get to the airport and stay there til you can catch a flight. |

I'm still at his place. Well, his parents place technically. No one is home, so that's probably how he can pull all this crap. (he's 20) anyway. He told me I had to be out today, he hasn't fully kicked me out yet.
I have about $200 or so on me, but I'm not sure how much that'll do me |

hmmmmmm maybe I could cast a little spell for luck or safety or something. I could stir it up.

This happened to someone very close to me, you would not believe the interrogation she went through, when she was the victim. It was horrendous. I wouldn't wish that on anyone. |

Go to the airport and change your tickets.
I fly all the time and am constantly switching my flights. You might have to fly stand by and you could be there for a while, but what are your options? Is it better than staying put? Or, and let me be frank, risking a WORSE option by staying with a complete stranger? No offense to Lisa who made a very generous offer. just my 2 cents ![]() |

Hey Lisa, you have Joel's number yeah?
Maybe he can help a little too, shuttle to the airport perhaps, and a little safe company till the flight leaves? |

Well, I was supposed to leave on the 8th, and had already changed it to the 4th when I saw problems were arising. I really didn't think it'd turn to this or otherwise I would have tried for more.
Anybody know of an approximate rate for taxi's around LA? |
