Smiling cat gave good advice. Then Owlie, you have to walk away or otherwise you will get hounded over time.

You are all adult women, at a university grad program. Some of these folks ...have to wean themselves.

If that means I end up being abit more isolated --fine. Grad school is temporary and make the most of it ...for the best learning opportunities to expand your own knowledge.

I love the socializing part....group study is not truly my thing.
