How to Handle this Advanced Play(?) (HH review)

I've been unable to post hands in the proper format so I'm hoping this is ok.

This hand happened at .10/.25 which I don't normally play. Every now and then I'll take a shot at it. Sometimes it goes well sometimes it does not. I don't really have any reads or anything. This was about 10 hands in and I don't have any hands on the players at this table. However I have watched villain in a few other hands get really aggro.

I've been finding myself in this exact situation more and more lately. I don't know how to handle it. I don't want to simply call and let them draw out on me. If villain wants to chase his draw I want him to pay. Unfortunately it seems I'm the one who always ends up paying. I certainly can't fold what I know is the best hand at the time...right? I'll admit that at these stakes these player are much more advanced than I am. And this situation only seems to come up when I take a shot at higher stakes.So maybe I'm just not ready yet. Maybe I'm not thinking ahead enough.

I can definitely see why he did what he did. A lot of turns will improve him to the nuts. But it's still a draw and getting it all in on a draw just doesn't seem all that advanced to me. He has to know I'm not bluffing here. But maybe I'm very naive to what's really going on here.

Hopefully you all can shed some light on this for me. I'd love some feedback.

Thanks!
