This is another good spot for a 3-bet, but calling obviously beat folding.
Flop
It feels very tight to just straight out fold TT with only a single overcard on the board. But it is a 3-way pot, and even though MP has checked, he could easily be checking some AX hands with a weak kicker. So even when BTN is bluffing, some percentage of the time we will get an overcall from MP and be behind to him. And of course BTN could also be betting for value, in which case we are behind to him.
We also have no backdoor draws, and if we call now, we pretty much have to fold to any further pressure, unless we spike a set. So even if MP fold, and BTN is bluffing with a hand like KJ, we also depend on BTN not getting there and deciding to shut it down and not bet the turn or river, because otherwise we will just get bluffed out of a bigger pot. So all in all I think, its fine to just get out cheap and move on to the next hand.

I'm not folding the Flop here. I think there's a common player type who had it taught to them that You Are Supposed To Range Cbet On The Flop™, but this is all they know about post-flop play, so once they hit the Turn, they don't know what to do and often just check. So I think it checks through often enough to make a call profitable, and then you also have a little extra equity from your two outs.
That said, I don't think folding is a blunder, I think it's a marginally inferior play at these stakes. It is very possible that Villain bets again on the Turn (probably because they have the Ace), and then you have to fold. In all such cases, calling the Flop loses money.

I will comment something here: you are just pasting the screen shot of the hand here, which it turns very complicated for me to understand, since I need to read all of those actions. Why don't you try to write yourself and describe the hand? It is a good exercise and it might help you through the hand process, instead of just pasting the picture here.
We can 3-bet and call preflop and it will depend on the adversary.

I think the reason that i folded here was in these stakes people don't bet half the pot if they don't have an ace here.
and he called the preflop very fast without thinking so I would put him on a high range.
but i think it would be a good price to see the turn if i had flush draw or at least a straght draw.
but the board was too dry and it was rainbow.
so i decided to fold.

I don't have the data to back it up, but I really doubt this is true.

Yeah there definitely has to be more behind a fold here than "people never bet with worse than top pair". Heads-up folding would be way to tight. Multiway its much closer and at least not a major mistake.

You did not connect to this board, and you were not the preflop raiser. If you were to do anything different, it would be to check and call the flop. BTN could be bluffing or betting a hand like 55-99 for protection. So folding TT is quite tight. The more standard play is to call and see, what happen.
