Now my thought process. The entire hand i put him on a middle pair. i thought if he hit a set he would raise the turn. i really wanted to stick with my read and bet it but i thought on it for a while. thoughts opinions?

4 card straight, 3 to a flush.....he's playing this very passively if he's got you, but you never know with these guys. I think check/call to induce weaker hands to bet or to keep the showdown as cheap as possible if he's ahead. You could also try a blocking bet with the intention of folding to a raise.
