Go with your heart.
I was playing at my friends house, $5 buyin. There was 5 people. I got out, and bought back in for another $5. After about 10-15 hands I built my stack up to about 13$ to become to chip leader.
Then this hand came.
3 people in, I'm on the button and have A,8 of hearts. I raise to .75. Blinds are 10/20 cent. One person calls.
I flop a flush, he gets two pair. He bets $1, I raise to $3 he calls. The turn he makes his fullhouse. He bets, I raise, he goes all-in. I pretty much knew he had the full-house, but I didn't think I was capable of folding it. The player was a good player, tight aggressive, But he called my raise with J,6o. So, that was in my head aswell.

Just curious as to how you knew exactly what your opponent had throughout the entire hand  . You say "that was in your head" that he called your raise with j6o. I don't see how on earth you put him on that hand.
Its pretty hard to get away from a flopped nut flush. However, you said villain was a TAG player so I'd definately take that into consideration when the board paired and he started raising. Without knowing exactly what cards were on the board, it's really hard to give any advice though.

I wrote it in past tense. Meaning the hand already happened, which means I know his cards now 
I couldn't figure out how to say it without sounding like ****. Sorry. x)

Don't trust lessons you learn from single hands too much. Poker is a game taking place over time, and you really need a good sample of hands before you can draw good conclusions on something.
