To "blow hot and cold" is an idiom that means to change one’s mind, to change one’s opinion toward something or one’s enthusiasm for something. When someone blows hot and cold, others do not know what his true opinion is or what his next actions will be. The idiom is sometimes rendered as run hot and cold. Blow hot and cold is derived from an Aesop fable sometimes known as The Man and the Satyr. In the story, a traveler comes upon a satyr’s cottage. The man blows upon his hands to warm them, and then blows upon his porridge to cool it off. The satyr is shocked by a being who blows hot and cold air. (Source: grammarist.com)
