I really didn't give him credit and thought he'd give up on the river vs. me as most likely an unknown to him.

Thoughts?

kind of a strange spot for him to c/r flop so i can understand the dilemma, but thats a really nasty turn card (aside from giving us heart draw)

I don't like the turn call I don't think you get value on the river enough to make it profitable/he gives up and we don't improve.

the PF limp is 100% fine

I dont understand why in the world we bet the flop
I dont understand why in the world we bet/call the flop

I agree with limping being fine here, but i'm not sure about betting out the flop or calling the raise. You seem unsure and readless so i either c/f or hope to peel.

I hate bet/call on the flop. If you think people might play at you, check flop back. Otherwise, bet/fold

Call me weak, but I probably check the flop, fold to the raise, and fold the turn. That bets too big to justify calling although your draw is disguised.
