The best guide I have ever seen is https://succeedsocially.com/
It’s so unbelievably straightforward and useful. It’s unfortunate that I discovered it after learning everything the hard way.

It's not bad. Maybe 7/10.
I read the page https://www.succeedsocially.com/morefun. Here's my initial impressions. Pros: it identified several important painpoints and give several decent examples. Cons: Being a truly fun person is all about reaction reaction reaction. Fun people react authentically (while censoring their ahole side because you don't want to be fun but unlikable), ridiculously (while reading the room), and intelligently (playing to the top of the crowd's intelligence).
Consider the intended audience though. This is for people who are lost and need perspective and concrete steps for improving. Compared to all the "fake it 'till you make it" or "just stop caring" type of advice, it's helpful.

But here you explain exactly what is difficult. It's like walking a tightrope and someone tells you not to fall to the left and by the way, also not to the right.
Great comment - it feels very true
Wow, after reading the various pages on this link for ~20m+ I have to agree this is one of the best resources I've ever encountered.
