Pretty much what Lori said. Friendly, attentive and flirty. I tend to think of charming people as a little too smooth, too.

I think that "charm" means the person has a certain power that attracts others to them. For some reason, Nancy Reagan came to mind and also Katherine Hepburn.

I think someone who is charming makes me feel like I am the most important topic on their mind. A charming person could "sweep me off my feet" without me thinking they might have ulterior motives.

To me charming means a person who is very personable, can get along with anyone, very pleasant, can "charm" the socks off of your feet. This charm can be both positive and negative.

Charming is when someone can just make you smile with a word. They are warm and there is charisma.

I think of "charming" someone as putting them under one's spell. This can be good or can be not so good and often it sets up an interaction that isn't based on genuine feelings or reality.

LOL j/k I agree with the others. I think that the person is someone everyone wants to be around because they make them feel good about themselves

A sparkle in the eye, a smile on the lips, exudes a special energy, complimentary to people around, "grace under pressure" (trying to remember where that quote came from, and what it referred to), light and airy, zest for life, genuinely interested in other people, special quality. Did this before reading others above; never thought of the negative side :-( After all, the word "charmed" does come from the magic world..."He's got me under his spell" from song "Bewitched, bothered and bewildered".

A charming person to me is one who makes you feel good to be around. They are warm and friendly and but not wishy washy, they are just an all round good person who you like to be around.

Charming is someone that you enjoy being around. The real charming person is honest and genuine. The wannabe charming person is less than honest and genuine.

I think a charming person is someone we all want to be around that has all the traits you have listed above.

A charmer is one who makes another feel good about him/herself, in one way or another.

Charming: A kind, friendly person who has a smile that is reflected in their eyes. A person who is genuine!

A charming person to me is one who is graceful and endearing, with a gentle charisma.

Charming is Fred. One who gets your attention from the first meeting and continues to get your attention after 30 years.
