Sorry to hear what you are going through.
The physical and verbal abuse is a showstopper. Unless the person being abusive "gets it" it most likely will only continue.
While I am not a fan of divorce, sometimes its the best thing that needs to occur. Hate is a strong feeling and one I dont totally understand. As you pointed out how can someone, particularly an adult hate a child.
Your family is your family and most marriages when either side doesnt' like each other they just do it for their partner.
You have no children so if a divorce is in the future, its easier without kids.
You are right everyone does deserve to be happy. In any relationship each partner deserves to be conscious of their life with that other person and to be happy and love each other. Intimacy is part of it. From your post it sounds like you have none of that. And it is hard to as they say "teach old dogs new tricks".
If your wife is as you present, verbally abusive, physically hitting and not intimate with you, then that is who she is...people can change but sometimes its too hard because of who they are.
At my age, having gone through a divorce and being older, my cynicism kicks in.
If you are unhappy and she probably is too, then maybe divorce is the best thing. She deserves to be with someone too, that she loves and cares about, not someone who makes her react the way she does.
It appears your gut reaction is to end it, sometimes the voices in our heads are right. I wish you and her luck, divorce is tough and difficult, but as I said at top of this post, abuse is a show stopper.
