One thing you should adjust that will help you too. Your priority should be YOU first and not making her happy. If you are not focusing on advancing your own cause, you own resolve and purpose. Women love guys who are passionate about their lives in that way. That doesn't mean you treat them like trash. It just means you make sure your own well-being is above everything else. A woman is generally happy when with a guy who is well grounded in the ways I have explained. The bonus that women are looking for is when a guy is that way but also an actually good guy. I believe women's biggest difficulty in the relationship world is figuring out whether a guy is one like I described or someone who is just cocky, edgy, and will ultimately hurt them.

I can agree with every single point you made, you seem like a really smart guy. I'm also sorry to hear about what happened with your previous SO. She did treat me like trash but we also did have our moments. But does the fact that this incident was a while back change anything. From my current knowledge I'm pretty sure hasn't done anything like that in recent times. But that's just for my own knowledge as I agree with you guys and should probably move on.
