Default How many raises is this flush worth?

1st hand at the table so no read on UTG.

On the flop I initially call with my strong drawing hand as I want as many callers as possible. Should I be raising? I generally only raise in this position when I have overcards I need to protect. Anyway when it comes back to me I 3 bet for value.

Great made the flush on the turn and capped without too much thought. When UTG bets the river after I capped the flop I start to fear a bigger flush. Am I a wuss for not raising this river?
