Stefan acts like the "good" brother, it's part of his character, he needs to maintain that image as it were, in the attempts to hide his dark side. It's part of a superiority complex he develops over the years. As he goes from two extremes in life, similar to having an identity disorder, in order for him to feel good about himself. It's not a good coping mechanism or survival mechanism. There is no good or bad brother in this show really, just two brothers who have to deal with the fact that they are vampires and they cope with this in various ways. Damon eventually you would say reaches a healthy understanding of what it means to be vampire and has come to accept and love himself a bit more in accepting this and it's why he is able to control the drinking of human. Stefan on the other hand, eventually comes to hate himself as a vampire, influenced in some cases even by his own father's words, this self hatred in a way, is also what develops his certain superiority complex that gets him thinking he is the "better" and "good" brother, and to maintain that image, he hides his dark side from others as well as lies to himself and then uses Damon's own negative behavior as a means of feeling superior to Damon, despite his own bad side. This hiding of his bad side though is why he hides things from others and is dishonest, it's become part of who is, that it's like a second nature to him to lie, hide, and keep secrets from others, until they discover them. He can't be honest about who he is or what he, so he goes through two extremes, pretending and trying to play at being a "Human" because he can't accept his vampirism, or completely embracing his vampirism fully Stefan doesn't know how to be in the middle ground like Damon. The two brothers are a reversal of each other, Damon uses his bad side, to hide his good side, while Stefan plays at being good, to hide his bad side from others. Yet, it's more important to Stefan for others to view him as good, to see him doing good and seeks others approval to feel better about himself. Damon is the more honest and straight forward of the two though, he doesn't hide who his or pretends to be something he isn't, and he doesn't need approval others even when he does something good, he doesn't announce it or let others in on the good he does do. Once again, neither brother is good or bad in terms of good vs evil as it were, but each of with their certain flaws that becoming vampires created in dealing with that.

Probably this won't get read but with Jeremy and Anna, you got it completely backwards. When Jeremy says part of him that is glad he doesn't remember Vikki like that. Anna says to Jeremy "as a monster?" Then Jeremy says "No as someone trying to hurt me" That statement confirmed that he does NOT see vampires as monsters.
