I'm wondering why you asked instead of firmly saying, "we need to talk about something privately". What happened to: "...go up to your W and tell her you need to speak with her alone. Don't ask her..."
In isolation, you asking her isn't a big deal at all. In context, it's just a continuance of subordinated behavior, which is exactly why I suggested you TELL her instead of ASK her. You need to change your mentality towards your W. All of these individual situations, conflicts, and incidents will be remedied if you correct your mentality.
Does that make sense?
