Am I a bad stick driver?

Howdy /r/cars!

I've owned manual cars on and off for my whole life. It seems like I would go though a clutch about every four years or 90k miles.

I'd like to blame it on the fact that I lived/worked in Seattle, where most of the time the car is creeping up hills at 3 mph and being launched at most-to-full throttle to get out of sticky situations.

I moved to super flat Texas and now have a commute that is a bit of stop and go traffic and long stretches of freeway am wanting to upgrade from my beater Civic.

Should I even consider another manual? Would the change from hilly to flat have a great effect on the life of my clutch or am I solely to blame?
