Did I fold correctly in this spot?

Basically I am playing in a 6-max 0.02/0.04 cash game, I have pocket 8's, utg calls, then a fold, I raise 3x, then everyone flat calls behind me. 

Flop comes 3,6,J all hearts. Pot is 0.60, Get a couple of checks, then a half-pot bet of 0.30. Anyway I fold in this situation, but the player after me flat calls, the rest of them fold. So at this moment im putting them on a flush draw/made flush or a pair of J's. 

Turn is a 8c, player A puts out half pot bet 0.60 into 1.20 pot. Player B calls. Pot is now 2.40. 

River is a Js, another half pot bet from player A, player B moves all in for 1.94, player A calls. 

Player A turns over Kh,Jd (trips), Player B turns over Ah,Th for the flush. 

Did I do anything wrong here, given that I was beat up until the river. What would you have done taking into account pot odds and outs. Should  I have been looking more at implied odds here. Was my first round of online poker.

    dont be results orientated. by the looks of it you played it fine and folded at the correct time.

    if possible its better to post the hand from the hand history section. its a copy and paste job. there a sticky thread at the top of the poker clinic section that details how to do it

    Easy fold on the flop.

    Also if you are at one of the tables where nobody folds pre flop, I probably wouldnt bother 3x raise 88.

    Some tables its correct, sometimes it isnt.
