hot and cold are just terms that we use for the amount of energy in a substance. Water is cold when there is not a lot of energy in it, energy has the tendency to move from a high concentration to a low concentration so when you have a glass of warm water, it will LOSE energy, making it colder until it becomes the same temperature as the room. This will be at equilibrium and therefore stay the same.
