Hello
I was wondering whether it's correct to use past continuous to describe past habits. For example, istead of saying : I used to smoke in my late teens/ I smoked in my late teens/ I would smoke in my late teens, can we also say " I was smoking in my late teens" meaning I no longer smoke?
I remember asking my host family while in England aand they said it's correct, but I still doubt it and I've never used it.
