Default Folding a good draw in a tiny pot

I don't do this often but it does come up infrequently. I wanted to know what you guys thought about such action. I pretty much never fold flush draws HU because of the implied odds but here I might be drawing dead, and I might be drawing to 6 outs. I felt I had reverse implied odds bigtime here.

Villian is fairly passive.

Party Poker 5/10 Hold'em (6 max, 5 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is BB with 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, SB completes, Hero checks.

Flop: (2 SB) 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">SB bets</font>, Hero calls.

Turn: (2 BB) T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">SB bets</font>, Hero folds.

Final Pot: 3 BB

If villain was passive, I would raise the flop. The turn fold is fine.

absolutely no reason not to raise the flop. you could easily have 14 outs here and could bluff him off J high.

folding the turn is perfectly fine. you dont have enough to draw and all your heart outs are tainted.
