Tip. Are out to get in well with (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

endear

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'in well with' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.

'tip are out to get' is the wordplay.
'tip' becomes 'end' (tip can mean the end of something).
'out' indicates an anagram (out can mean wrong or inaccurate).
'to get' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'are' is an anagram of 'ear'.
'end' placed inside 'ear' is 'ENDEAR'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for endear that I've seen before include "Make lovable or please" , "Attract" , "Earned (anag.)" , "ingratiate" , "Make prized" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
