Charisma. You either have it or you dont. Or is it something that can be acquired as an adult?

Asked by misstrikcy (1257points) December 9th, 2010

My dad is a TOTAL charmer & full of charisma.
So was my mum (rip).
So I’m wondering what happened to me…? I’m a bit of a nerd.
I’m a nice person ‘n all, but am just missing that special ‘something’ that both my parents seem(ed) to have.
I was brought up well by both, and hoped one day some of the charm that they both had would rub off on me. It doesn’t appear to have happened.

So would you agree that it is something we are only born with? Or do you think it can be learnt/acquired as an adult?
Does anyone know someone who became very charismatic later in life (compared to their youger life)?

Interested to see if there’s any hope for me…
