She Soured Him On Marriage

Mockery and ridicule shut him down completely.
Vowed to never marry again; did this most discreetly
Dated a lovely widow named Mama T. McMeetly.
Who married someone else, but thought of him quite sweetly.

I like this one, especially because I know some guys who have completely soured on marriage for precisely this reason!

Sadly many women hold one man’s mistake against all other men.
