    Hi!
    I am an engineering student.
    I had a friend of mine with whom I am not on good terms right now.
    I just received a request from her to do the final year project together.Although she is intelligent she has a very dominating and irritating behaviour, which puts me off on several occassions.
    What should I do..Should I accept her request thinking of keeping professional matters seperate from personal issues or decline her based on her nature ,behaviour and my past experience?
    A wise advice is what I really want

    It's a professional arrangement - you don't have to like each other to work together. Welcome to the real world - it's something you are going to have to deal with throughout your working life after university.

    Ignore the personal side of things for now and ask yourself if you think that you will work well together and will the final year project benefit from input from both of you? If the answer to that is yes, then personally I'd take the opportunity. Better a motivated partner that you don't like, than a happy-go-lucky partner that has no interest in getting work done.
