$60 - Middle set on 3 diamond board

Going broke to a flush here sucks, but I gotta figure this guy can have top pair or a pair and flush draw a lot of the time, and flat calling and giving a free card here seems terrible. Maybe I'm just doomed to lose all my chips here, or is there another way to play this?

As far as I'm aware this is standard. It's so unlikely that he flopped a flush and by the turn you have 10 outs to fill up or make quads. Push this all day long!
