@SamAnders1995 some thoughts:
A) can you justify the raise beyond just his fear of losing you?
B) can they afford it?
C) are you prepared to leave if they truly can't afford it or just won't give it for some other reason?
D) is there anything you value more than a raise, such as more autonomy, and maybe reporting directly to the CEO instead of to that other guy?
re-reading the sidebar
It's neat how one's perspective can change over the years.
Example: Michael's Story, which is on both TRP's and WAATGM's sidebars.
I first read it in its original spot in the comments section at Dalrock's blog years ago when I was still unplugging and figuring things out, and totally sympathized with Michael because he reminded me a bit of how I was in college.
I went back an read it again years later, and was kind of mad at him and at my younger self for being so naive, for letting so much opportunity pass by because of stupid idealistic conditioning.
At that time, I should have entered her frame.
No.
but I was sure she wouldn't cheat on me because of her genuine desire.
Genuine desire is essential, but not sufficient. A woman's character matters too. Most of them will cheat, because most of them can feel genuine desire for some new guy too.
She may have lost her desire for you. It may or may not have been something you did (your stuff reads like you did like most guys do: give in too much and let her run things). She may have been faking it all along.
You'll likely never know for sure.
;What should I do?
1) Get on with your life and fuck other women.
2) read the sidebars at TRP and MRP
3) especially read these two books from the MRP sidebar: "No More Mr. NiceGuy" by Dr. Robert Glover and "When I Say No I Feel Guilty" by Dr. Manuel Smith.
4) before you do anything else, since you're considering taking her back again, start here: Rooting Through Garbage by Rollo Tommasi

Sorry i already watched tiddie pr0n, which is what I was going to do anyway when I made my post.

Why didn't you give me this advice BEFORE I made a post about what I was already going to do anyway??!?
alpha behaviors and leadership.
Alpha has zero to do with leadership.
Alpha = arousal; things that make a woman wet and eager to fuck (dopamine and fun)
Beta = comfort; things that make a woman want to stick around (oxytocin and must be earned by the woman; unearned beta behaviors actually repulse them as does too much beta behavior)
You need a balance of the two.
Leadership comes in only in that you're the man, so you're in charge. She enters your frame.
If a woman refuses, don't try to make her. Just next her and find one who will.
[stuff about sidewalk rule]
Don't bodily manhandle them roughly to do that, but rather just take that spot before they do.
If they beat you to it, gently guide her away from the street side of the sidewalk with a hand in the small of her back (chicks love that shit when they're into you), and say something like "I should walk closer to the traffic side".
A) has she earned your protection (which is a beta behavior/trait)?
B) fucking equality. They wanted it, let them have it (up to a point).
Generally, on a date, your goal is to get laid. Offering unearned protection to a chick you haven't even fucked yet will likely move you even farther from that goal, especially if she hasn't even entered your frame and is resistant to the gentle guiding aside.

I haven't attained time travel powers yet!
I've only been retaining for a few hours!
Well then get your fag advice off of my post. Miss me with that bullshit and just let me ask my question of something where I already made up my mind from the two choices i present in my post.
@Vermillion-Rx oh yeah?
