keep betting when you think you're beat by two pair?

When the BB 3-bet me on the flop I figured him for 2 pair.
Is it correct to stay aggresive?
When he didn't bet (or check raise the turn) I knew he didn't have trips.
Stay aggressive or check it through on the turn?

I think it maybe comes down to reads on the player, I have seen people somtimes play this way with a flush draw jamming the pot early hoping to hit, I have also seen it with an overpair QQ-AA's so you are not definatley behind.

Had he raised you on the turn then I think you have to slow down or muck but you cant give a free card if he is drawing.

Personally I think you played it fine (unless you know the player and he would only three bet with more than tptk).

With only 1 pair and someone bets into me after I've shown strength I become passive. There is NORMALLY a reason a person bets into strength.

It's either a bluff OR they have a hand. I person has to PROVE they are a bluffer before I take them seriously - THUS - they have a hand.

The 3-Bet would make me REAL passive. Remember - it's ONLY 1 pair!
