You should use the appropriate verb for the meaning you want to convey.

Some verbs are regular, but many verbs, including many frequently used verbs, are not.

In English you cannot avoid using irregular verbs. So always use the correct verb! If you make a habit of doing this, it will get easier, and eventually it will become automatic! And then you won't even have to think about it!
