I would like an advice, folks. After reading, I've realized that I can do way better with the heat in winter. I now keep it at 68 when the kids and my BF are home, at night it goes down to 66. When I'm home alone I am fine with 66, an additional layer and no prob, I actually went to 64 yesterday. My kids may complaint, but I can tell them to get dressed.
The problem is my BF, he can't stand it. I can't tell him to get dressed, he is an adult. And I'm the one who is skinny... (I thought that a natural "insulation" layer gives an advantage). How can I persuade a grown up boy who actually seems tough and likes to do DIY projects with me, how can I convince him that 66 is NOT cold, and for sure 68 isn't cold.
p.s. He doesn't pay my heating bills, so "saving money theory" won't work. He did hint that when and if he moves in, he would like it to be warmer. My plan is to lower the temp even more. How do you guys convince your SO?
