First, you need to learn how the pirates operate. New players are at an enormous disadvantage when it comes to metagaming, therefore read this article, Section "D. Successfully Countering Metagaming: How to do it?". This will at least give you an insight how it is always you who gets hit.

Because, to be honest: There are hardly any pirates around these days. There were times when it was normal to get pirated at least once per trip, my personal maximum was 5 times per ore run. But these days are long gone.

My 2nd advice would be: find a group to fly with. Don't play alone. Flying together is more fun, safer and generally less frustrating/grindy.

Also, changing your mentality towards piracy might help. Calculate 10 % of every run as "piracy fund", and assume you normally lose it. After a few runs without losses, it's okay if you lose your cargo/money again. Getting all sour and frustrated is not the way.

Also: make a pirate and experience the other side. Piracy is by no means easy, fun and profitable. Having both angles is invaluable and will make you a better player.
