We use used to + infinitive for:
things we did regularly in the past, but we don't do now. / past facts which are no longer
true.
I used to work at a restaurant, but now I work at a library.

Used to helps us to compare activities in the past and now. When we say used to, we do
not do something now.
I used to work at a restaurant. I quit that job, and then got a new job at a library.
The different forms are:
positive: used to + infinitive
I used to live in Istanbul. Now I live in Columbia.
negatives & questions: did / did not / didn't + use to + infinitive
I didn't use to like sushi. Now I love it!
Did you use to work in a restaurant?
Yes, I used to
No, I did not use to
● I used to have long hair (but now I have short hair).
He used to smoke (but now he doesn't smoke).
They used to live in India (but now they live in Germany).
Watch out! With the negative and the question it's 'use' and not 'used':
Did you use to be a teacher?
Did he use to study French?
She didn't use to like chocolate, but she does now.
I didn't use to want to have a nice house.
Note! With this 'used to' there is no verb 'be'. We CAN'T say 'I am used to have
long hair'.
