Another possibility would be to just check the flop and see what happens. This isn't a hand/flop you want to commit a lot of your stack too, but you wouldn't mind a showdown if it didn't cost too much. Checking when you have a piece of the flop often isn't a bad plan. It's true you might be giving a free card, but your hand isn't very strong given that flop. If you just checked and folded that wouldn't be bad either.

The worst mistake was the raise on the river. The way you should be thinking is what are the chances you're hand is good if you are called, not "I'm ahead, so I'll raise." You can raise for value when you think you'll win most of the time you are called. If you almost positive you're beat you can raise on a bluff if you think the chances your opponent will fold warrant it. With the in between hands (good enough to possibly be ahead, but not so good that you'll probably win if called) you should call.
