Default unlucky or bad play?

I play alot of small stakes hold em i.e. .50 1.00 or 1.00 2.00 no limit. Lately I seem to get drawn out on more than usual. I'll always have the best hand pre-flop and get sucked out with hands like j 4 and other crap like that. I usually always raise with my good hands but I still get weak out of position callers who seem to always outdraw me. I cant figure out what I am doing wrong. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
I would like to mention that I mostly play online, as online play greatly differs from live play. Thank you

Post some hands you have questions on. No one will be of much help if they cannot see examples of how you play.

Read SSH section 'protecting your hand'. This helps, but sometimes the bad players in these rooms will catch you with stupid catches on turn/river anyway, however you just have to be safe in knowledge that you are playing correctly and in long run you will win and they will lose.

example 1: I have kings on the button utg+2 raises $2.00,(blinds are .25 .50) 2 middle position players call. I reraise $7.00, original raiser calls. Both middle players fold. flop comes rags, but are all hearts. Its heads up now and the original raiser bets 5.00 he only has about 10 left. I put him on a draw because most low limit players check when they flop a flush in my opinion. So I put him all in. Sure enough he has 2 queens with the queen of hearts. And the turn brings a heart. This happens to me time and time again.
