This is an OK example and a common situation. I'm actually looking for hands where you didn't really want them to fold. In this hand you actually want them to fold when you raise because you are generally behind when he calls your raise. But it does make you wonder if calling is more EV than raising, which is basically the whole idea behind this thread.
