True Poker - rather loose 2/4 (of course)

I'm in the middle with 88 and raise 2 callers one I'll call ShortStack (SS) and I feel is tilting.

Blind see's my raise and so do the other 2

FLOP = JJJ

Check to me - I bet everybody calls

Turn = 9

Check to me - I bet Blind and SS call

River = 9
Board is JJJ99

All I want to do is get out alive

everybody checks and Blind and SS call - sure I'll call 1 bet and split the pot. ShortStack Raises and has $1 left.

I can't fold a made board and would be sleepless if they split it without me.

I call the 2BBs.

Blind reraises CRAP! SS goes all in and I'm forced(??) to call.

OF COURSE The Blind has the 4th J.

My question is - should I have folded at anytime? I felt that the other guys were only raising trying to force others out. So like a bull I stayed.

Comments?
