In winter my nasal passages get extremely dry at night if humidifier is off, but my wife seems unaffected by dry air. why might i be more sensitive?

Men are from Mars!: Seriously, from a physiological or allergic point of view, it can be safely said that no two humans are alike, let alone a married couple. If you are already more prone to allergies, it is a given that you would react more to environmental changes such as dryness or humidity. If your wife doesn't mind humidity at night, you are better off than couples who race to adjust thermostats all night.
