Pentax generally takes a conservative view on metering to make sure you don't clip any highlights. Many of us use +1/3 or +2/3 stop all the time.
The metering mode used should be determined by the situation, sometimes center weighted is best sometimes something else. I use center weighted most of the time, and routinely have EV at +2/3
So, no you are not doing anything wrong, just use the EV to adjust so it gets correct. Be aware that different lenses may require a different EV setting. EV is just an adjustment, use it as needed.
