Major flaw in my game?

Hello,

I'd really appreciate it if someone could analyze
this and tell me what they think of this play.

Final Pot: $39.25

Our game had been very loose, and my opponent
had been to, and with my ace pairing on the
turn, with the nut flush draw a possiblity,
I thought it a good opportunity to double up.
Was this a really bad play on my part, or
is it just part of the game?

Thank you in advance for the help.

I don't think I push yet, because he just re-raised...he's not going anywhere.

I don't think you played it horribly though. Be careful raising with AJ though. The only reason I don't mind it here is because of decent position and the fact it's only 7 handed.

Call the turn and check call or check fold the river unless you make the flush. AJ is not a strong hand esp. against a preflop reraise.
