Why does my boss praise me in front of others (even if I'm not around) despite hating me?

Anonymous

My boss can't stand me for an unknown reason, oftentimes ignores me on purpose and makes passive aggressive remarks but oftentimes praises me. I have already talked with other coworkers about his behaviour and no one knows why he is so standoffish only to me. Everyone else seems to think that he is the sweetest and coolest person on the planet.
