More overthinking on my part:

If one of the problems in our marriage has been a lack of date nights and our MC forced us to go to one date night a month, should I continue?

Before I found out my wife was still seeing the OM it would have been easy to answer - of course I'd go on a date with my W! But what about now? I think I shouldn't, but I'm not sure how to stop going on dates without seeming like I'm proving her point that it was only a temporary change.

One obvious suggestion is to say that our marriage currently has too many people involved in it and that I don't want to date until it's just the two of us. We've both already agreed that no progress can be made as long as the OM is in the picture.

My only concern is that I'm not ready to make an ultimatum forcing my W to choose between the two of us - I know it won't be me right now.
