How I did it: After what I thought was an awkward exchange between an person I went to HS with and hadn't seen in years, my date was like, "You know, you're a good person. Very charming.". . .so. . .I mean. . .I think it completed this. :)

Lessons & tips: I think the key to being "charming" is to listen to the other
person/people and work to make them feel special and comfortable in what
they are saying or doing. At first, it was sort of difficult to connect
on that level with someone. . and sometimes it's a fight when the
person just replies with "yes" or "no" or. . .can't really talk about
anything, including themselves. . but the point is to just let people be who they are and accept that.

Resources: Practice. And paying attention to people I think are charming and put me at ease and repeating that in my own way.
