Blind Play

BN: $31.50
SB: $58.29 (Hero)
BB: $66.94
UTG: $74.84
HJ: $62.78
CO: $49.68
Preflop ($1.50) (6 Players)
Hero was dealt T J
UTG folds, HJ folds, CO folds, BN raises to $2, Hero calls $1.50, BB calls $1
Typical problem for me. I have a hand that I am on the fence about playing. The button villain has a fold to 3-bet of 82%, so I assume that if I raise I will get 4-bet with better, called rarely OOP with a hand that has to improve or he folds (which is the same result as ATC raise). So a fold or call is my thinking. I call.

Generally looking for feedback on playing out of the blinds as this is an area where I am often unsure what is the best play.
Flop ($6.00) 5 4 J (3 Players)
Hero checks, BB bets $1, BN folds, Hero raises to $4, BB calls $3
Not a bad flop, but no plan on donking flop. But BB essentially donks and I read this as a worse hand than mine.
Turn ($14.00) 5 4 J 9 (2 Players)
Hero bets $6.52, BB raises to $14, Hero calls $7.48
Can get villain to call with worse, so I bet. The raise confuses me as I was confident he was not strong. So I do what I hate. Call. Villain is fishy 25/4. 0 3-bet, 0 CR. Should have been a clue.
River ($42.00) 5 4 J 9 3 (2 Players)
Hero checks, BB checks
Final Pot
Villain turns over 95o
Unfortunate turn card.
