I, too, got married a few weeks out of college, (I think it was July though. Ask James; he could tell you. I'm just horrible with dates, although I know for dagnabbit sure that James proposed to me on January 30.) but before James I had a very limited dating history--as did he. I don't think it affected our relationship nearly as much as it could have. There were many issues we didn't have because of it. Neither of us were ever concerned about how we measured up with the ex-boyfriends/girlfriends. Nope; most of our issues came from how we were raised. Maturity doesn't always come from bad experiences.

Anyway I'm interested to find out how the assignment turns out. It may be a turning point in his relationships to go head-to-head with Lois.
