Of course... But would you really want to fold someone drawing so thin against you?

#2 if it is my fault that i got sucked out on or was there a way for me to avoid this.

You played it fine. He hit one of 4-5 outs (depending if he had the flush ten or not). This is great for you, there was a 90% chance you were going to beat him on the turn.
