This happened to me when I was in the streets. Im suprised she even went with you because guys are psychos and pray on homeless women. A guy offered me a hotel room and I refused thinking he was trying to pull some shit but low and behold, he took me to his house to get food for me then rented the room and left me there. He asked if he could stay because the 2 beds but I said I would rather leave. He told me he would give me privacy but talk to me in the morning. He left $40. I didn’t feel safe so I left super early in the morning and left a note telling him thanks. When homeless, it’s hard to get out because you don’t trust if someone is genuinely trying helping or hurt. I’m sure she didn’t go to sleep at all, she was too nervous. The streets end up feeling safer when you are homeless

Taken into hospital and I managed to escape from people that wanted to put me in care in them days you were never treated right .

Thank you for your input from the UK.

Got sober with the help of a high-power then paid lots of money to expunge my record, and prayed a lot.

It doesn’t matter if they are homeless, it doesn’t matter if they are addicted to drugs, it’s doesn’t matter if they are alcoholics, it doesn’t matter if they have a mental illness, it doesn’t matter why or how they got homeless, they are people who have feelings and don’t deserve hate. I stop and give what I can almost every time I see them on the corner. I don’t care what they use the money for. Once it’s out of my hands, it’s no longer my business but I make sure to shake their hands and converse with them while at the red light. Even a few words means a lot to someone. I don’t always have money on me but I always roll my window down and say words of encouragement. Little acts of kindness goes a long way.

all time it’s my money and I can give it to whom I want to. I don’t make assumptions on what they use the money for and it’s not my business either. After a long hard day I like a cold beer. I’m sure if I was in the side of the road with people yelling at me, I’d want a drink after that too. Plus I spent a long time in the Army and I learned real quick, when ur starving, u can’t sleep good. So after awhile they will buy food anyways. After all of my tax money that is given to women that stay at home and have multiple kids with multiple fathers and get welfare, food stamps and section 8 housing, why do the homeless deserve less? Better than giving it to woman who lays on her back with her legs spread just so she can collect free money.

Most people only have their own homes, they do not have extra homes. And, let's face it- most people are afraid to take in a stranger into their homes because they don't know what kind of people they are taking in. The person could be on drugs, be a thief or cause them harm. That is just the reality of things, not trying to judge or put all homeless people in the same class. But, one bad apple will ruin it for all. There have been people who took in homeless people to help them get on their feet and the homeless people killed the person that tried to help them. So, I'm sure we can understand that fear. Then, people realize that they themselves have to 'work' in order to have a home (and sometimes they are barely making ends meet), so they cannot take care of another adult. Another thing to look at is a person home may be full already, they have family in the home they are taking care of. Plus, people are going to or should be very careful who they bring around their children. There are just so many factors to look at. It's not that people don't want to help.

I am homeless. I also served 5 years in the Marine Corps. I have a daughter. She was abducted and then kidnapped when the mother left California and moved to New York. I haven't seen them in 11 years. New York says I owe child support for all that time. And there is an interest rate. I can't afford to pay the interest rate. So the debt continues to grow. Any money I put in the bank is taken by the state. My wages are garnished. I work over 60 hours a week, and I still can not afford a home. If I pay rent, I can't eat. So I live in a Semi Truck, where I work. And I'll have to keep driving a truck until I am unable to drive. And by that time, I'll be in more debt even though I am making payments. I might as well burn the money because it's paying the people who forced me into a hardship, to continue to labor with no possibility of retirement. I am not just homeless. I am a slave.

This video made me cry! How can a beautiful child be let down like this!!!??? How can society let a beautiful girl such as Lovely just fall through the cracks when she was suppose to be safety netted???!!! Took notice of that this video was taped almost 3 years ago. I hope things have improved for Lovely and that things are looking up for her!!! And I hope she makes her way into a successful photography career! I sense that she would be an outstanding professional photographer!!!

I was homeless and it's hard to explain but you feel literally helpless and so depressed that even if someone tries to help you it won't work most of the time.

My heart goes out to all those living on the streets. To MY understanding no one can identify with being homeless until it happens to them...

There are so many nasty things people are saying here. Not everyone has a healthy mind. The majority of homeless are mentally ill. They can't afford medication and unless you have been even close to mentally sick you have no idea why or how they got where they are. I don't understand why the ones that are so angry about this girl watch the video and why do you feel the need to write something so awful. Why not just move on? I'm thinking several people that are so offended by her have no idea what REAL struggle is. I don't mean just regular life struggles either. I mean the serious shit. People are so fast to just judge. I'm sure I will get some nasty comments but it's fine.

Yes, people can be amazingly ignorant. Everyone can have something happen but many have something happen or something worse without reliable supports. People are becoming more and more isolated and disconnected from community and agencies might not be reliable or known. Notice she was asked to do research for police in exchange for the police taking care of the crime that was committed against her, when she should have been helped as a matter of course and was probably too worn out from it all to do anything. It is amazing the extent to which people judge, judging when many are a step away from it themselves and would not recover without secure supports. Some simply have lost these supports and things happen. On a side note, I heard a high percentage of people by their 40s in the US have had some period of homelessness, the difference perhaps was that they had a way to be helped out and backup resources with trusted friends’ or relatives’ sofas to sleep on.

Most of the time, a person who becomes homeless, needs a HAND UP...NOT A HAND OUT! Her smile is so beautiful. NYC🤘

Beautiful story, almost made me cry. I'm from Mexico and in my country we don't have the programs and resources to help homeless people to get back on their feet. I'm a homeless man myself, I can speak four languages and have a master's degree in business, but no one wants to employ me because I'm 63 years old.

I've been homeless and told nobody, lived in my car or tent while working several times. Used to manage a clearance furniture store in Atlanta. Guy came and bought my cheapest stuff all the time. One day he tells me it's all for a homeless shelter he managed. Floored me. I asked how he got the job. Said he used to be a resident. He then asked me a few questions, I told him I was married and had a son. He said if my wife left me, I might be there in a few weeks. She did. Have some sympathy y'all, it's not always as it seems.
