I felt very unclear of what I should be doing in this hand. I felt based on me 3 betting from the BB when I could just close the action with a call, and them coming over the top screamed a bunch of a strength. Feels pretty ridiculous to put in such a big amount of my stack and then fold.

Sometimes you're just gonna get stacked by a better hand.

don't fold this - you need to be happy getting 35bb in pre with QQ

Why are you 3betting 4.5x with the Intention to fold to an all-in?

3bet smaller if you consider folding, but with such a huge 3bet (more than 25% of your stack) you should call. You are most likely up against AK here
