I heard from one of my neighbors that when you replace a head gasket you're suppose to replace the head bolts also, is this true? Cause if it is, well than I guess I missed out on this three times

On quite a few applications like a Mazda MX5 (for example) ...yes. But on these (if you are talking about a HT) engines, heck you can reuse the head gasket itself (I have). Although I'd replace the cylinder studs and nuts with a higher grade hardware.
