I said "for privacy reasons, I cant give out the names of my clients, but all I can tell you is I am working with a couple of lawyers" This is the last thing that was said and then the bus came. is it possible that this is what caused a turnoff for her?
No. This is in fact more of a DHV answer. Shows you are serious about work and loyal to your employer. Women appreciate loyalty. But you could have been more of a joker as pink suggested and said something like "gosh that's too personal for me to reveal. Do you want to know my home address too?"
Your first mistake was not inviting her to sit next to you on the bus. "Hey follow me to the back of the bus so we can continue our conversation." Your second mistake was going back to the front of the bus and talk to her. That was an extremely aggressive move -- in fact, she probably felt you were invading her territory. We're talking about a city bus -- not a night club where everyone is grinding on one another. Third mistake, but that's the least serious of your mistakes, you asked "what else?" Very vague question. Stupid rather.
Your next move is to simply ignore her. You let her know that not responding to your social approach is unacceptable. With time she'll hopefully engage you again. Your second move is to socialize with everyone at the bus stop. Women, men, kids, anyone. This will make her think you weren't necessarily hitting on her, but rather trying to be friendly. Good luck.
