For what it's worth, you're not alone out there.
It was 75F and 95% humidity when I left this morning before 8 am, then about 80F when I got back 40 minutes later, still 95%. Pretty much a dead calm except for wind from passing vehicles.
Riding (or not!) as I've been lately -- Once a month or so --- due to various reasons, it could easily turn to frustration, but I'm trying not to go there. Today was 7.x miles. I've discovered that as long as it's flat, within my 'personal context' I'm OK for the most part. But, throw in even a small overpass-sized hill or two and my lungs really start to complain. I guess that means I'm working them, eh?
My legs are nothing stellar, but right now they're ahead of my lungs.
I'd really like to find a suitable riding partner... i.e., someone in even worse shape than me
but that may not be possible.
Tell you what - You keep it up and I'll keep it up, OK?
