I'm generally not a nit preflop, but this isn't a hand you want to play heads up, oop vs a lag.

Postflop, hard to say without knowing what his 3 bet means.

No credit for AK,AA,KK? I'm dumping it to his 3-bet without a read. Most won't 3-bet push like he did with AQ or AJ (or they wont be around long) so I think you're toast.

I fold this PF as well.

i play it similarly, though i play 6max.

[ukpokerplayer]

I'm coming from $100nl 6-max tables. straight away after i called i knew i was toast. i just hit call without thinking .oh well. live and learn

I hate saying it this way, because I believe a good player can play any number of hands as long as his post flop game is top of the line, but you really need to let this go preflop. You're not up against anything you want to see. At best he has QQ JJ KK and you're hoping to suck out with an ace hit.

It's pretty apparent he has you beat on this board. Fold to the push.
