[quote=Anonymous]OP here. To respond to 13:19, in the beginning I would initially try to run things by her 1:1. Over time I realized that she never wants to talk to me about work stuff. She has plenty of time to talk about her personal life to everyone but she is always putting off or shooting down important work related things that need to be discussed, especially when brought up by me.

Before when I would try to talk to her 1:1, she would either 1) stop me mid-sentence to push me off on to someone else (that person would later tell me that they can't make a decision or do anything for me without her approval, so it was really a pointless exercise), or 2) she rejects whatever I am saying right there, or 3) says she is too busy to even think about it, most of the time without even knowing why I am trying to talk to her. Also I was not bringing stuff up to her 1:1 that often that it could be disruptive, just on an occasional basis.

I honestly feel like she doesn't want to hear anything I have to say. I feel like she'd be happy if I never spoke to her about work (and I'm not a loudmouth by any means) and if all info from me was funneled to her by other people.[/quote]
