The Reason I Play NL - Help Me Out Here, Please!

I don't play limit much. Too much math. But I'd like to. I've played 7000 NL hands and I'm winning a bit. At PP .5/1, 1800 hands and I am down 4.6 BB/100 hands. This hand seems to be pretty much par for the course...Is this typical play. Once the pot is big, everybody correctly calls. With this many in, do I make crying/cussing calls with the AA when the flush shows? After all with everybody and their brother in the pot, someone should have it. Still, I could be wrong. Calling station on the river?
