It's called evaporation. Water has a tendency to do that you know. When water evaporates from the skin it also takes heat with it, regardless of whether the room is warm or cold.

It could be because your feet were in the warm water and when you come into the cold you feel it. Or the more probable reason it that your feet are on an angle and the blood doesn't all pour there (like when you put your head upside down the blood rushes in) and since your feet are so used to having the blood all there so when they get a break and some blood pours back into your legs when it all rushes back they get cold. It's a weird body function but nothing to be worried about.

You have been sitting in warmer water than the outside of the bath. Your body has adapted to the warmth of the water. So your internal temperature mechanisms will react in the same manner as when you go from a warm room to the outside.

your body gets used to a higher then 98 degree body heat in the bath and therefore you feel cold and also could be room is colder then the bath water as well

Unless you like taking cold showers, the average temperature of a show is easily over 100 degrees. By the time you've finished your shower, your surface skin temperature is also over 100 degrees, even though temporarily.

Because the bath water is warmer than the air.

Two reasons - one, your skin has adjusted to the heat of the bath water, and two, as the water on your skin dries, the evaporation process cools the skin.
Hope that helps...

The hot water is evaporating from your body. As water evaporates it will cool. So that is why you feel cold.

Because when your in warm water, your body temp lowers, and when you get out, you expose yourself to cooler temps than the actual water was... in turn, making you feel cold, until
your body temp gets back up to normal.
