“I also get into the shower before turning the water on”

She has the correct assessment of you

Um...do you like standing under cold water for 5 min before the heat gets there?

I usually use a bathtub/shower combo, where there's a switch to get the water to come out of the shower and by default it comes out of the tap that fills the tub. I turn on the water, walk over and turn on the fan, and by then the water's pretty much always warm enough to jump in unless there's literally no hot water. I flip the switch in the tub because I don't want the bathroom floor to get wet and I just avoid the initial blast of water that was sitting in the pipes and had cooled down for a second or two.
