I think I am folding way too many hands postflop lately, that said am i ever good here?

[CaptVimes]

Meh, fold the river. You don't have that many hands against villian, but I give him the benefit of the doubt here until I find out more. This may be weak tight, but whatever.

Fold - line to me looks like he has an ace with a missed nut flush draw.

[ElectricWaffles]

Think i'd agree with the above. Kind of looks like a draw with lots of check/calls. Could also be some random-2-pair-from-the-blinds type hand. Ace on the river is bad news, as has been said, it pairs him if he was chasing the nut flush draw.

As a side note, i'm often not happy playing KJs because it's often dominated in big pots by higher flushes, AJ and so on. Is this good poker thinking or rubbish?

Depends on the situation, but it's usually not profitable to play these hands out of position, or calling a preflop raise. Depends on the player of course but you do not want to get stuck in TPGK situation against heavy action.
