Idk it just really rubs me the wrong way and comes off as very sex negative because I believe the origins of the phrase are from sex… or at least it comes off that way. the idea that a woman is capable of being ruined. it basically means, because of that thing that i had/did i can never have anything else that can compare.  I could be wrong, it just hits me in a funny place idk

   I’ve never heard this phrase. I’ve heard something like ‘that restaurant ruined steak sandwiches for me for the rest of my life’ implying it was so bad I could never even look at a steak sandwich again

   I could see it meaning “It was such a good steak sandwich that none can ever compare” or “it was so bad I can’t ever eat another one again.” but not sure how the comparison translates to being a sex-negative thing.
