If I use regular solder and not solder paste, then normally I apply solder flux to the PCB pads and connector pins; then I apply solder to each pin; not worried about solder bridges between pins at this point; but I do this quite quickly. Next I use solder wick to remove any access solder/bridges. Clean with alcohol using a small brush and voila I have a perfectly installed SMD connector. Not sure why the OP kept heat on those two pins until they peeled off the PCB.
