Because a lot of times when i feel fine, i see ppl shivering and groaning when they lived here all there life also.

any of you guys like this?
That's me as the cold terribly bothers me as it's almost painful to feel cold and infact i'm the opposite as i thrive out in the Hot and Sunshine as my endorphins flow and skin tans when i feel the UVA/UVB rays strike my skin as it must be in our DNA as to whether we like cold or heat.

I live in Jersey also and most of my life I have never felt the cold, people complain to me when it is sometimes below 10 degrees that I shouldnt be in shorts and a shirt but I just simply say that I feel nothing and the weather is very warm to me, lol I also sometimes wear sandals when its snowing out and my feet are fine. I don't know if its abnormal but I do remember as a child, maybe around 4-5 years of age I felt slightly cold but around the age of 6 my body no longer responds to any kind of freezing temperatures. I go in the ocean in the winter without any kind of body suit and the water feels fine to me also. I'm not fat so that is one possibility thats ruled out but im about 175 pounds mostly composed of muscle mass. I learned that metabolism generates heat energy throughout our bodies so I guess mine just works significantly better than the average person lol
