Default Re: Too weak(?)

Thanks for the feedback! I hadn't really considered raising preflop, my normal play here is to limp. I guess this is another hand to bring up my PFR with.

But I do feel the flop is where I screwed up the most, choosing the worst out of three options. I am a little surprised that most seem to advocate that folding > raising though even if it seems to be thin. At what pot size is raise > fold? If we assign ourselves 6 outs we need 6.8:1 odds to continue and our pot odds here are 7:1. Is this edge too thin to push?

Anyway, the rest of the hand:
