On the other hand, it should be pretty obvious I have an ace to this player.

You would never call his flop donk once the other guy folds to pop the turn with an overpair?

Sure I would. But I played my hand very much like an unimproved ace would the vast majority of the time.

Then I don't think you can afford to fold a hand this strong. You're just letting this guy knock you off far too many hands in your range.

I think this is almost a fold but not quite. If you're opponent is a good second level thinker and knows you probably have an A and knows you'll bet it then he'll checkraise because he has a set. It's stretching to say he knows you know this and will expect you to fold. However, he could be doing it for value with a worse hand or he could just think you're full of [censored]. You mentioned "you thought he was pretty passive" Change 'thoguht' to 'know' and 'pretty' to 'very' and it's a fold ez.
