Choke (2008)
IMDB rating: 7.20
Plot: Victor Mancini, a sex-addicted med-school dropout, who keeps his increasingly deranged mother, Ida, in an expensive private medical hospital by working days as a historical re-enactor at a Colonial Williamsburg theme park. At night, Victor runs a scam by deliberately choking in upscale restaurants to form parasitic relationships with the wealthy patrons who “save” him. When, in a rare lucid movement, Ida reveals that she has withheld the shocking truth of his father’s identity, Victor enlists the aid of his best friend, Denny and his mother’s beautiful attending physician, Dr. Paige Marshall, to solve the mystery before the truth of his possibly divine parentage is lost forever.

Would you leave immediately if ur husband hits you?
as i write this i am numb and somewhat broken..i typically pride myself on being strong and independent…but i would never be able to tell anyone who knows me about this. our situation has been tumultous from the beginning and i did strike him on two occassions defending myself as he pushed me while i am pregnant and two other times for calling me abusive names in front of people— he never hit me but yesterday he finally did because i got upset about him still repeatedly referring to his exwife as his wife in conversations with other ppl. he started choking and shaking me and then hit me really hard in the rt eye. and said that im getting a dose of what ive given him….then he went on this apologetic spree and the minute i said he choked me he got belligerent and told me that i can leave…and i have nowhere to go 9 months pregnant and i left everything to be with him. so much has happened…so much sacrificed…and im simply paralyzed…scared to stay around for the next time…would you forgive something like this since i was the first in times past? or would you try to find a way out fast and be done?
go to a shelter – don’t stay with this bast**d!

You could forgive him, but you shouln’t stay in the relationship even if you are pregnant. When guys try to slap back is one thing, but choking you, he is crazy. Wake up and leave. Have some respect for yourself and your baby. Things can only get worse.

Please leave your abusive husband before he hurts you or your child. There are places and agencies in your community that will be more than willing to help you if you have no where else to go. You just need to find and ask them.
Get out and be done with it, he won’t change and by staying you’re not just putting yourself at risk, you’re putting your child at risk as well. No matter how bad a future without him looks in the short term, it’ll be better than a future with him can possibly turn out if he’s the sort of guy that will hit you. And please don’t kid yourself, he IS the sort of abusive husband that will continue to hit you and abuse you. Please leave him before you get hurt again.

Dial 211 and ask where is the nearest battered woman shelter. They will tell you, take your info and let the shelter know you are coming. Leave with what you can even if that is only your purse. You can choke someone to death or snap there neck, please leave. Even if you leave for the sake of the baby please leave.

i think that is easy to say leave but is not that easy for the one that is going through it. my boyfriend choke me cuz of a guy friend on myspace but im still with him cuz of my two kids. i think he is using drugs to act that way with you. get help from the government if you really want to leave, they will give you a place to stay safe.

I did. and then went to the market and ate a huge meal.
Quinalin | Feb 05, 2010
LEAVE!!!! think of the your baby!!

Yes. Get out fast. Contact a women’s shelter. Abuse ALWAYS escalates, and you can’t take any chances, especially considering your pregnancy. Best of luck to you.

You need to find the fastest way out and be done with it.
Things are getting worse between the two of you. You said that he never hit you until that day. Well now he has hit you. He’s a very controlling person. No man should EVER strike a woman. When a man strikes a woman, it shows they’re very weak and very insecure. He thinks that by doing this he can control you. He also knows that you won’t leave him so he continues to abuse you. Not only is he abusing you physically but verbally. He’s a weak, insecure, and a digusting excuse for a human being.
A man like that NEVER changes. There have been real life cases where a woman who’s been abused by her husband and continues to stay with him ultimately get killed. You hear it all the time on the news about domestic violence cases that end up where the woman gets killed.
You’re 9 months pregnant. You say that you don’t want anyone to know about it. Well if you continue to stay with him there’s a good chance you’ll be the top story on your local news and I promise you that everyone that was close to you will find out about it. Do you want to take the chances of you being with someone who has the potential to kill you? Do you want to take the chances of your child being left in this world without a mother while the father is in prison? If you’re not going to be doing it for your sake, do it for your child’s sake. When your child is born and you’re still with him, he/she too will be abused by your husband. No child should have to go through that. You’re being selfish if you decide to stay with him.
You need to leave him immediately and you need to file not only a restraining order but have him arrested as well. Don’t feel ashamed or humiliated about this. Don’t feel that it’s something you did and don’t feel that you’re just getting what you deserved. You didn’t do anything wrong. Don’t be afraid to tell anyone about this either. Let the people that you know about this. They can be there to help you out. You say you’re a strong and independent person. Well be strong and independent. Show yourself that you don’t need him in your life. Show your child that he/she only needs you to rely on. By doing so, your child will look up to you as someone who was in trouble but was strong enough to get out of it. He/she will feel proud to call you his/her mother. Don’t think you’re alone in this world because you’re not.

as humiliating as this is and as scared as you are please call the police and report it. he needs to learn that this is not sane or adult behavior. you have every right to be paralyzed but feel that fear and do it anyways. there is no excuse for assaulting a 9 month pregnant woman- they will remove him from the home one way or the other-then file a restraining order. until you can sort things out at least he will be deterred to hurt you. call a friend or family member to be with you until you settle, even if it is for a few days.
please i know it hurts but he is not worthy of your presence- you have to protect yourself and baby
Agent99 | Feb 05, 2010
Honey, if you are going to stay with this guy, we are going to answer this same question in a few years time. He is not going to stop, so either get a protection order to make him stop or leave. (Hitting him isn’t helping either).
Unfortunately YOU will have to decide when you have had enough – trust me, he is NOT going to stop.

This is not just about you at this time. You have a child to think about. Did you know the #1 cause of death for pregnant women in the USA is homicide? This is no joke. You have got to leave. Abuse tends to escalate and it has, from thoughtless words, to insults, to pushing, to punching….what next? You need to get out (and probably press charges, get a restraining order & file for child support, etc.) This will only get worse. I dont talkmuch about your abuser bc his thoughts and motives are of no consequence to you! All you need to know is that he is abusive and now you act! Im so sorry you’re going through this but now is your time to get that independence and strength back & take care of your baby and your life. People who know you and love you would want it that way & will respect you for it! Be safe & Be smart. Good luck!

Honey run from that coward.
Dont mean to scare you, but i volunteer at this shelter once a week and there was this woman who was in practically same ish as you. Only problem is that she went back to the bastard, got herself punched in the stomach mind you she was 6wks to due date, it caused an overbleed she eventually died on the operating table. Idiot took his sweet time rushing her to hospital. Now the kid whom the doctors managed to save will grow up without a mum and a dad in jail for killing his mum.
Do whats best for your unborn otherwise you will be another statistics.
pretty kenyan | Feb 05, 2010
You were wrong in the past – no doubt about it.
But NOTHING justifies him choking, shaking and punching his 9 month pregnant partner. This is the stage where you need his protection the most, when you are at your most vulnerable, and his actions risked not only you, but his unborn child. LEAVE NOW!
Barb Outhere | Feb 05, 2010
I would leave. The first time. Go to a woman’s shelter … call your parents … just get out of there before this becomes a cycle and you become a statistic.
