For example as much as I eat I can barely increase my weight, while other people I know have to be super careful with what they eat to not gain too much

Your body isn’t behaving differently, it’s your perception that’s different. If you’re eating more calories than you expend you will gain weight, if you eat fewer calories than you expend you will lose weight, if you eat the same your weight remains the same.
You don’t eat enough to gain weight, that’s it. You think you’re eating a lot but really you’re not. Maybe you have a big meal one day and think that’s a ton of food, but if you don’t eat much most of the time that meal doesn’t mean anything. Measure your portions, weigh your food, whatever you have to do to get an accurate log of what you’re really eating. Then eat exactly the same the next week, but with the addition of a six-ounce piece of chicken breast (raw weight) each day. “Suddenly” you’ll gain weight.
Metabolism isn’t really a thing, it’s all your current weight, how much you’re eating, and how much you’re expending.
