I want to start off by saying that I think you do a really good job at GAL. As we discussed in the past I would recommend you start to increase your efforts in the excercise arena.
Now 180s IMO you need to focus on. Being and living alone and taking care of your young children. When I read your journaling I get the impression that you need a woman to take care of you. I pick up from your writings that you may struggle just to be able to feed the kids and you. I suggest you table the dating for now, learn to stand on your own and take care of your kids for at least a year. Your still very young and have a life time to worry about another relationship.
As for your W, remember boundaries. Don't let her talk to you like that.
Just out of curiosity, what are her snarky remarks about? Could be potential 180s.
