Do you need to eat spicy food constantly so you can get used to it?

I used to eat half spicy ramen but i did it on a monthly basis. Since Korean ramen isn't that cheap and the last time i ate it was a month or two, not sure was the long wait the reason or that this particular ramen was really spicy, like it says on the cover. So, yes, abort mission. I handled eating this dish in half, my eyes getting teary, very strong flavour but my tongue and mouth burning, making it numb, i couldn't handle it any more minute. I still feel burning, 20 minutes after my dish.
