To hate the sun and hot weather?

I feel like I'm the only person on the planet to absolutely hate hot weather. I see YouTube vlogs, people on tv programmes in direct sun, on holiday in hot countries and it doesn't bother them at all whereas I get really stressed if I'm too hot! I'm dreading the weather hitting 25 degrees next week and I won't be able to leave the house. Anything above about 15 degrees is too hot for me and I personally can't wait for the cold weather to come back!
Does anyone else feel this way or is there something wrong with me!?

I'm the same, I hate being sweaty and have no desire to sit in the sun. It always makes me laugh when people go "you should enjoy it, you'll complain in winter when it's too cold"

Yes...yes I will :) I don't want to be too hot OR too cold lol

Nope, nothing wrong with you. I don't like hot weather. I am ok up to about 23 or 24 degrees, but much more than that, I am actively planning my day to avoid being outside too long.

Over 30 and I am a hermit.

I don't like sitting on a beach or in the garden in direct sun, and as for eating outside a cafe etc., forget it.

I like old fashioned spring and autumn.

I’m the same. Hate it! I hate feeling sweat on my back 5 mins after showering. Yuck

I know quite a few people who don’t love hot weather and find it uncomfortable (and constantly complain), but I’m talking weather in at least the 20s; to find anything over 15 degrees too hot does seem unusual. 15 degrees would be cold for me!
