I never got the sense at all that Aragorn was swayed by Eowyn. He appreciated her - but he tells her straight out before he goes into the caves that she is in love with an ideal - not with him. He says

"It is a shadow and a thought that you love. I cannot give you what you seek."

He's saying that she hardly knows him - she has a crush in him. His heart is taken elsewhere.
