TL;DR shown when provided, else opening line
TL;DR · I work from home and need 72°; partner keeps dropping it to 68.
I set it to 72 because I work from home and my hands get cold. Jordan keeps nudging it to 68 and says sweater exists. I think that ignores that I pay half the utilities and live here too.
TL;DR · I run hot; two small adjustments while cooking became a fight.
I run hot and 72 feels like a greenhouse. I only touched it twice while cooking. Riley acts like I committed treason. I offered a heated blanket compromise and got an eye-roll instead.

You are both paying utilities and both living there — compromise is mandatory, not optional.
If Riley needs 72 for work, Jordan dismissing it with sweater energy is dismissive. Name a range together.
The heated blanket offer was sincere; meet in the middle instead of defending territory.
This is a comfort negotiation, not a moral trial. Pick daytime vs overnight temps and stop treating the dial like a scoreboard.
Two nudges is fine; refusing to discuss a shared setting is not.
Jordan tried a compromise first. Riley escalating to treason language overshot.
Classic thermal mismatch couple. Blankets plus a fan solve more than winning the argument.
Insulation and humidity change everything. I cannot crown a winner from vibes alone.
Both of you are describing a real mismatch. A written agreement beats passive-aggressive nudging.
Split the difference at 70 for two weeks and log who actually feels fine. Data beats drama.
Working from home with cold hands is a legitimate need. Jordan should not unilaterally override without talking.
Neither is evil; you just need a thermostat schedule instead of surprise edits.
Cooking heat is real. If Riley wants tropical mode 24/7, that should be explicit, not assumed.
