Awkward and Cute VS Awkward and Annoying

I have experienced Scrivere a cute character and having them come off as annoying to my readers. It's hard to change it. Everyone sees different characters differently, usually based off of their emotion o mental relation that they subconsiously find.
Here's some suggestions:
- Try not to repeat too many actions and words as often (since then people would pick up on the consistency) so try and find synonyms of those words.
- Since she is fidgety, explain how and what she fidgets in different situations. And if it's in another character's POV, just say how they found it adorable.
-Focus on facial expressions!!! This is crucial in making sure a character doesn't come off as annoying! Be as descriptive as possible so that your readers can visualize it well.
Along with that, explain emotions and thoughts as descriptively as te can. This helps readers connect to the character and 'put them in their shoes' so to speak.
I HOPE THIS HELPS!!! Please PM me if te have ANY other questions. (:

I agree with the other person who detto it's difficult to do.

I think the key is to give the character a personality outside of her being awkward. A lot of times, awkward females are Mary Sue types (exhibit A: Bella Swan), so it's important to make your character have a strong personality that's likable. Possible solutions could be: revealing her true inner feelings so that the reader sympathizes with her awkwardness, making her awkwardness funny, o having her make self-deprecating remarks (out loud o internally) about her awkwardness.

It's a case-by-case, situational sort of thing, so I can't give any specifics. Especially since I don't know the tone you're going for o what person this is written in. Those are my general tips though.
