Not to spark off-topic debate, and not to slam anyone's sensibilities, but when I read the situation above, all I could think in my head was, "this is why abortion should stay legal."
Obviously, this is a totally loveless situation. I'm guessing that aborting the child isn't an option for you though, since you seem hesitant about adoption as it is...
My personal opinion is that if you (you two, collectively) are set on having the kid, adoption really is a wonderful option. There are lots and lots of good households with two people who actually like each other to raise the kid- people who can't have children of their own, and have lots of extra love and attention they're dying to give a baby.
In a world with too many people as it is, consider letting people who CAN'T have kids but WANT kids know the "joy of parenthood" if you're not in a position to be the parent you believe you should be.
