Yeah I am using the same, and my spending are limited at a moment, and its only for online purchases, if I have to buy any physical thing then I need to convert it to fiat first.

I spend it in the time of emergency, as I would love to hold it at this stage, as we are expecting higher price in future so its good to hold for some time.

I spend some of my bitcoins to buy some online goods, mainly the computer components. It is not a problem.

I do not spend them directly in my real life, I only sometimes spent them indirectly with my bit-x card if this is possible of course.

Viking mobile does it and I use it. It is in Belgium, though.

Unfortunately I have not found enough options to spend my bitcoins on real life here (Mexico), and all my possibilities are limited to online businesses or virtual acquisitions: nothing to do with "real" life.

I also do not do this the fact that a lot of stores in my country are not accepting it makes it difficult for me.
Debit cards are okay but the fee's are from some of them just not worth it for me.

Satoshi Nakamoto's Whitepaper states that Bitcoin is an INTERNET currency.

Using it "in real life" means using it on the Internet.

Even sending some BTC to a friend is "Using BTC in Real Life," and it supports the network & the coin.

It is widely used & traded in North America, (US, Canada-- not sure about Mexico), Europe, Asia, Africa & Australia.

I've heard Starbucks accepts BTC in store & even gives a 20% discount, but I haven't found one yet.

Edit 1:  Hong Kong: https://www.bitcoinhk.org/2015-pay-at-starbucks-with-bitcoin/

Edit 2: https://coffee.foldapp.com/  <----  Never seen before, not recommending. "Foldapp Allows Customers To Pay For Starbucks Purchases with BITCOIN & Get 20% Discount" with plans to add Whole Foods & Target.

Sometimes when i need to buy good i will spend my bitcoin after i stores my balance in my wallet to wait that time.

if i am not mistaken the correct term that was used about bitcoin was p2p cash not internet currency.

and for the usages offline there are shops that accept bitcoin like coffee shops like OP said and i also have seen 1 or 2 also i have seen recently a guy on reddit who had a food truck and was accepting bitcoin as payment.

mmm no not yet. because in may city there is no shopping mall or other areas where bitcoins are accepted. may be it will take a little more time to introduce bitcoin in my area. it will be the most jolly moment for me when i will use bitcoin as a currency specially in my own area.

I also prefer to collect bitcoin than doing unnecessary expenditure. Sometimes I go shopping with bitcoin. but when I'm in desperate need of it. like when I buy a top up on my cell phone

yeah there are a lot of third parties who sell mobile phone top up services from various providers. if the provider itself I'm not sure they will accept bitcoin even I'm not sure they'll know about bitcoin? Lol
interesting is that you buy a variety of electronics with bitcoin. I've never tried

Not yet, it is still hard to spend  bitcoin in real life because it is hard to find shops or other places which accepts bitcoin as a payment method in my country.
I do not spend any Bitcoins in real life because the country that I am in does not let me spend any coins in the stores over here. The people here do not even know what Bitcoins are but I am sure that that is going change.

That's good that you are not able to spend so that you would be able to save more for future and spend when price goes higher, and you can convert is to fiat anytime you want.
