Can I date someone without it being considered an affair in the court of law and held against me when we go back to court?

Can I date someone without it being considered an affair in the court of law and held against me when we go back to court?

I have been married for 6 years separated for 3 years. I filed for divorce and the entire case has been dismissed due to time laps. During those divorce proceedings I agreed to my husbands request to not have the children around anyone I was romantically involved in voluntarily. I did not have an affair and that is not the issue at hand. I am the one who filed for divorce due to irreconcilable differences. Now I am starting the entire divorce proceedings again because of the case being dismissed.
