Default HUSNG - Playing against the shortstack

I actually do have alot trouble playing as the bigstack. I usually build a nice stack (~1800 - 2200chips) but then i start having trouble. I tend to lose my chiplead by getting a c/r AI by the shorty, and as long as i do not have the TP i have to fold, which mostly brings us back to even.

Should I c-bet less against shortstack trying to hit my hand first?

And another question about limping. I've been playing SHNL before i tried to take a step at HU, and in SHNL you usually NEVER limp. you usually come in for a raise.
But in HU i see alot players limping from the button, which appears weird to me. Still, even alot good players like rs4484 or fuchsie tend to limp a big amount. When do people limp, and why?

I could imagine limping with weak Aces against a shortstack who plays mostly passive, but then again i could raise aswell,having to fold to a push.

Don't fold so much to the crai - peeps are probably getting desperate and pushing with crap.
