It's ok. I don't like being c/r like that on this flop, so I'd consider 3-betting hard and then shutting down. It makes your hand pratically a bluff, but you have little else you can do. If you're behind, you'll find out after he calls/pushes. If you're ahead, he's likely not calling much more anyway and you just let him draw by calling.
