My ears never pop or ever have in planes or going up or down hills in a car when other people's ears around me do.

I never feel ear pain or pressure during elevation or air/water pressure changes.

I've looked online for others like me but all I find are people who can't pop their ears and want to.

How is everyone else's ears popping and not mine? What does it feel like? Sometimes people say it feels good sometimes it hurts, I don't get it and when I tell my friends I don't experience ear popping I get looked at like somethings wrong with me.

Have my ears just evolved to release pressure without popping? (I know I'm stretching here but it would be fun)

Does your head make an internal click sound when you swallow?

No click, when I yawn or swallow I do get a brief less then a second of muffled hearing. It's barely noticeable unless I'm actively trying to notice it.
