Villain is a calling station and I c-bet like a mofo. Is this the right line? I feel like I'm giving away money in situations like these. I have to fire the turn right? If he raises I'm obv done with this hand. It's very unlikely that this villain will bluff river w/ busted draw.

I think I'd check on the turn, because a Queen calls and a J folds. Looks like he has a Q with weak kicker, maybe a flush draw, if you put him on flush draw bet the river, did you put him on a weak queen?

Thats it, I don't know. I c-bet every flop heads up pretty much. He could have a j, q, or flush/straight draw here. I'm saying don't I have to bet something on the turn and fold to any resistance? If I check turn it just looks like I whiffed the flop. Then he can bet and I fold, or take his free river draw.
