It's too hot :(

You don't sweat just sitting doing nothing, get a river running around your underpants, lethargy, can't sleep without a fan running all night. Yes who would enjoy winter?

You sound unhealthy... I'm barely sweating and I've been out in the sun all day playing sport.

I can't understand anyone who prefers cold..
When it's summer, colours are better, smells are better. There's more things to do, you feel more relaxed, food and drink changes for the better, people get together more, you can stay up later and it's light out, your doors and window can be open, clothes dry better, flowers come out.

What makes winter any good. For me anyway likes 4 months of depression.

I enjoy both ends of the temperature scale and have enjoyed good walks in -18°c and the same for +45°c but the only thing that really gets me (sort of) down, is those neither one thing or another winter days.

Happiness for me would be 8 months super hot and 4 months super cold.

Now sorry, you sound freakish liking both, surely you have to be one or the other to comply with what we term normal

Its not hot enough to be sweating excessively as you described in this heat without something else being the cause, like exercise or health.

I didn't say I was sweating excessively, just sweating. Everyone has a different thermal response. Some like it hot, some like it average and some like it cold, yes I have some health issues but my dislike of the heat has been there long before they became a problem.

I am of mixed blood that is from the chills of one part of the world and the stupid hots of another, with some English mixed in to allow me to moan about queues and the price of milk :D

My best Strava times (MTB) have been set on some of the hottest UK days.

The heat wakes me up and the extremes of cold make me want to go out wrapped up to enjoy.

Ok, that is how you handle the temperature, that is the point. Not how others think you should
Sorry to have sounded rude but that is how people can perceive you being different to them

It did come over as rude, but no worries.

People can perceive me as they wish and tbh I couldn't care less, I informed through a post on a Forum of how I enjoy both and get knocked for doing so? Perhaps I should have just gone along with the crowd and informed that I hate heat and cold!
I and many others enjoy the heat and I am most definitely not alone when doing so, which the same applies at the other end of the scale.

My partner suffers badly in the heat and hates anything over 35°c and slows down in the summer.

My wife prefers it above 24°ish. She sat on the sofa last night with a blanket around her arms, the temperature was 23° in the room.

On asking my OH she said anything above 25°c but on holidays she doesn't move much when it gets really hot and sadly she's started to suffer from hay fever since last year :(

Funny enough our place can be 20°c throughout and like your wife, she will moan about it being cold.

Same here, blankets and hot water bottle or two during winter, she doesn't like it too hot though.
 
On paper room temp is only 22C (which I think is much hotter than last may but still). However the evenings feel way hotter, sleeping on top of quilt already, I dont usually have to do this in May.

Keeping window open overnight it is pleasant by morning at least. Drops down to 21C by 6am, but that on paper 1C difference has a much bigger "feels like".
