It doesn't hurt if you don't go too hard though, in my experience. To me at least hurting and burning sensation from spicy food are not the same.
Especially in Mexican cuisine chilis have each their own flavour and it's this distinction that I enjoy. But I don't go crazy on eating sole habaneros for example.
Sounds like you have built up a decent tolerance already.
That's quite likely. I can't really be objective in assessing this.
However my story is a bit different. I didn't eat a spicy thing in my life until I went to Mexico. They I've immediately started with the carnitas and loved the soft from the get go. I don't really recall the pain stuff. Again, unless I went way too much, which I don't like.
