We’ll go on a hike and I’ll get eaten alive and she won’t even get a bite.

What’s your blood type?

No seriously lol lots of [research](https://www.healthline.com/health/mosquito-blood-type) has shown that people with [O type blood](https://time.com/3311624/why-mosquitoes-bite/) are much more [likely ](https://www.treehugger.com/reason-mosquitoes-bite-some-people-more-others-4858811) to get bitten than other types.

It could also be that she uses repellent and you don’t, or if you do, she applies to more liberally, uses a stronger one, or re-sprays after the 4 hours.
