Default theory post: question about calling min-reraises

I'm often concerned at what to do in these situations:

assume it's a 6-handed game, your oppenant in the BB has between 25-40 BB. You raise on the button with a hand like QTo 3x the BB and your oppenant reraise 3x more, what to do? I feel like if you hit a flop that gives you top pair or any decent draw, you're compelled to push/call that commits you the rest of his chips and you could very well behind given his reraise, but folding seems ridiculous seeing how it is 3x the BB more to go preflop. Are you just stuck with this nasty situation because of the inflated pot? Do you just have to "go with it" on the flop if you catch a decent one? With stacks bigger, its quite clear what to do... call and bust him, but with shorter stacks, your ability to outplay him is decreased. Thoguhts? comments? Recommendations?
