I really hate raising the flop. Someone enlighten me please.

I'm not being a wise ass here, but isn't the fact that the OP is now faced with this decision on the turn a good example of why raising the flop can't be too bad?
What is so wrong with raising while you likely have the best hand? Should we only raise as a bluff? Sometimes a flat call is more suspicious to an opponent anyway. Now the OP has let the villain take control of the hand and he is faced with a very hard decision.
Again, I'm not trying to be a wise ass. I just like to keep things simple. Sometimes the obvious, straightforward play is seen by your opponents as a bluff (they're thinking that it's so obvious, it smells suspicious). Anyway, I raise the flop, but maybe I'm missing something.
