The only thing I will add is that not only do women not like weak men, we also don't like feeling like we are being played. Putting on a show to her family was a sort of game. It does sound like you enjoyed it and found that you had been too hard on them in the past but that was only after you had already made the decision to put on the show. Trust me, she knows that is why you were there and it won't make you look any better in her eyes.
Just my opinion of course, but after being played for years I have sort of mastered picking out the gamers from those who are sincere to start with.
