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.

no, it’s like saying “dark is the absence of light” which makes perfect sense. You can only make something dark by removing or blocking sources of light.
