Don't check the flop, if you do check, then raise his bet.

I also either bet turn myself or raise his bet.

I imagine he's gonna play virtually every single pocket pair like this so you're just missing out on value. Ok you lost this time, but that doesn't really matter. This time you lost the minimum, next time you may very well win the minimum

Check raising here is losing value as you will be losing your customer majority of the time, betting out is better

Well yeah I'd defintely be leading out, was just saying that as he's played it by checking, I definitely prefer a checkraise to a checkcall

You can't fold in this spot the way you played the hand as:
A. You only lose to 33, 32, TT, KK, A2,K2,Q2,J2,T2....seems like a lot of hands but it's unlikely he played K2-T2 and KK/TT would prob raise preflop
B. It doesn't look like you have anything strong at all as you have check/called so he could be trying to bluff you off a weak hand or be trying to ''value bet'' with a hand worse than yours thinking you have a 3
