Well... you raised, he reraised, I think you had your answer right there.

Even if you have 2 pair on the flop, it's still a dangerous flop for you. Your raise was ok in itself (read: not a bad move, but not a great one either). It could've mean AT also, but the guy reraised, meaning that he had better than that.

Don't go over the top all-in there. Either fold or call.

There are sooo many hands that will limp that beat you already :
9's, 7's, maybe even T's from early, 9T, 86.
And yeah, he showed loads of signs of strength. He bet, you raised he reraised - I want to believe I'll be able to step away from this one

This isn't that bad. You're beating alot of hands. Very read dependant based on how you've been playing and what the table has seen from you.

Going broke with two pair on a flush draw board isn't that bad.

The worst hand in the world is a limped hand because you never know where you stand. I am not saying it is wrong to limp with a hand like yours. That's about the only way I would play it to be honest, but as someone previously said, he re-raised your raise. I think this is the time to really think about what you have VS what villian most likely has.
