Eli5 is there no such thing as cold?

My SO said the above statement and gave me an explanation “Cold is the absence of heat or energy”, it does make sense however in my head it is like saying (in very simplistic terms) “the countryside is the absence of a city” and that is just a ridiculous statement.

Dark is also the absence of light in the same way. Dark is not something you can “add” you can only take away light, dark is the default state.
