I'm the type of person who you would consider a "class clown". While it's fantastic for meeting new people and making friends, it's not helpful in the realm of attracting women in a sexual way. Being the "friendly, funny guy" only results with you being put in the friend zone. I think this is something we can all agree on.

I've recently realized my shortcomings in this regard, and would like to improve.

What advice do you have for someone wanting to essentially change their personality and who they enjoy being? I'm assuming I'll always incorporate humor into my personality at some level, but I'm looking for ways to utilize it towards my goal of becoming more charming, attractive, and suave, compared to my current state of friendly, likable, and "lovable".

To put it in more simple and understandable terms, I'd compare myself to the likes of Chris Pratt, and I want to transition into having qualities more alike to that of Robert Downy Jr. Chris Pratt is fun to be around, but at the end of the day Robert Downy Jr. is the one getting laid and commanding respect.
