I just hate losing hands where only 1 card could have possibly of beaten me.
This is a fallacy that needs to be corrected on multiple levels.
(1) Getting hit with a true 1-outer isn't really that bad. Play often enough and it will happen to you. That it hasn't suggests that you simply haven't played enough hands - it WILL happen to you sooner or later if you play enough. A true 1-outer is either a set->quads vs. made full house or straight/flush->straight flush vs. full house/quads.
e.g.
Player 1: 88, Player 2: J9
Flop: J98, Turn: J, River: 8
or
Player 1: 6h5h, Player 2: 7d7c
Flop: 9h7h7s, Turn: x, River: 8h
(2) You didn't get hit with a 1-outer. As a matter of fact, anyone with a set or two pair has reasonable odds to outdraw even the nut flush - a set has 7 outs on the flop, 10 outs after the turn; two pair has 4 outs twice. Again, play often enough and you'll get your made flushes boated on the river 1 out of every 8 times or so.
(3) With three hearts on the flop, your chances of losing are pretty high if you don't have the nut flush. Anyone with a nut flush draw has 3:1 odds (lower than the usual 2:1 because you hold two of his outs in your hand) to draw out on you, so assuming that the Kh was dealt and not folded, your odds are 75%. So add that to the possibility that people have trips or two pair, and I doubt your pot equity here is more than 90% - certainly enough to roll your eyes about, but certainly not enough to think online is rigged.

since there were only 4 or 5 people in the hand to begin with, made it hard to believe that 3/4 people would have flushes
Why not? This isn't seven-card stud. The probability of a second person making a flush is higher than the probability of the first person making a flush, because of co-variance due to community cards. If AAA shows up on the flop, what's the likelihood that everyone has at least a three of a kind? 100%!
This is entirely why you can't get wedded to hands like Q7s and second nut flush - Q7s is very easily dominated by AQ-QT and Axs/Kxs (which people often play) and it ends up costing you a lot of money on top pair, weak kicker and second nut flush when you "hit" the hand.
If your stack/blind ratio is getting low, you have no option but to push with Q7s and second nut flush. But it's not a good thing, like, "oh, goodie, I get to risk my entire tournament on nobody having the Kh or no hearts showing up on the turn or river" - it's something you sigh and do because the alternative is even worse.

call it crazy but I've noticed I get bad beat there far more often than in real life or on full tilt
There is no way that you even have 1/1,000,000th of the sample size that you need to make that statement.
