TW for alcohol, drugs, guns, food.

When I was waiting for my girlfriend tonight to pick her up from work this older woman asked me for a ride to her house. She had groceries with her and it was dark and it was raining and she said she lived close so I felt like I couldn't say no. Plus, it was an old woman so I felt less anxious. Also I knew that I’d have my girlfriend with me and wouldn't be alone in the car with a stranger. Well, she definitely didn't live down the road. We went way out in the boonies I guess you could call it. I couldn't see well and I didn't know the area at all. The woman told me to turn into a driveway that evidently she couldn't see well either because it was the wrong one. I ended up going pretty far into these people’s yard. It was just my luck (sarcasm) that the property belonged to a very angry drunk woman who was also on crack according to my passenger who knew her personally. The angry woman demanded that I roll down my window. I stupidly did so because I couldn't hear what she wanted. She kept asking us who we were and why we pulled so far into her driveway. But it was yelling the whole time not really asking. I tried to explain what was going on but got interrupted often. She eventually just told us to leave. I reversed out of there as fast as I could in the rainy darkness. Luckily the old woman’s cousin lived nearby and we ended up dropping her off there. She apologized for the trouble and asked if we were okay. She seemed genuinely nice. Asked for money for food so I gave her some change that I had. I found out when I got home with my girlfriend that this woman had gone through my wallet. Could have taken my credit or debit card. I don't carry cash hardly ever luckily. So here I am feeling stupid for being kind to a stranger and scared because of the drugged-out woman who could've easily pulled a gun on us or something. I'm a pretty sheltered person who never got into any sort of trouble like that ever and I have anxiety already, like an anxiety disorder so I was really affected by the whole ordeal.
