Answer #1:
You're too good for her, she gets boned every night she goes out anyways.She keeps you around because she wants your money after you get that big fat PhD
Answer #2:
.An individual makes choices.Not always the right ones.You've made your point.She chooses to party and neglect her studies.To suit her frivolous lifestyle.That's what makes us all different.You too have choicesAnswer #3:
I feel for you here. I'm watching my brother neglect his way through high school right now, avoiding as much work as possible. It hurts, but I realize that pushing him and trying to do things for him only makes him pissed off at ME.So, step back. You've tried the delicate suggestion approach. If you want to risk it, you could try to tell her straight-up that you don't like the direction she's going with all the partying and such, and that you think it'll affect her future.
But as much as it kills me to tell you to do this, she really has to learn her lesson for herself or it won't have any impact. It'll be your agony until she reaches that coveted realization, but she has to do it on her own, unfortunately.
If things get too far and it doesn't seem like she'll ever have an epiphany, you can always conference with her friends, stage an intervention, that sort of thing.
But I would consider that a last-ditch attempt.
Generally, we as humans are pretty good at coming to realizations on our own. Trust her to do that.
Only get involved if you really have to. But still let her know you're there and you care. =)
