As mentioned, this is to be expected.
The car has a manual Parking Brake for a reason: it is meant to be used each time the car is parked.
Regular use will prevent lockup you have experienced, and may prevent the Parking Brake components from binding due to corrosion.
The Parking Brake can be used to slow or stop if the Service Brakes become inoperative.
Refer to the Owner's Manual...
Don't feel too bad, though, 99% of drivers seem not to use the Parking Brake.
