I agree with everything Brutha, and thanks for reminding me some of the basic assumptions of NLP.

But here...

...I actually meant "peace of mind" in the sense of my satisfaction with the outcome.

Outcome 1: She understands and accepts everything I say, yet she prefers the other guy because despite everything, he is better than me in meeting her romantic needs.
---> I can understand that, and I'm fine with that.

Outcome 2: For some reasons she doesn't even tell me (or doesn't even know herself), she totally misunderstood my past behavior, and doesn't want to believe me that I am actually different from the person whom she experienced in the past.
For example, when I say, "Sorry I was really distracted on that day. I was so excited about your reaction that I didn't act spontaneously and because of that I probably gave you the impression that I don't care for you." she might think that I'm only inventing an excuse...

Actually, the last time we spoke it seemed like anything I said, she thought it was just an excuse, and not the truth...
---> There is something wrong with the communication, and I would try to change it so that she believes me.
