Trinket,
I believe that you and him need to talk about this further. If he gets defensive, then try an alternate approach to ask him the question. Don't poke and prod at the subject, especially if you're just going around in circles.
If he didn't love you, he would have made some sort of escape route a long time ago. I think pictures are harmless, and as long as you're absolutely certain he's not acting upon these pictures, everything should be okay. When it comes down to it, you're so much better than simply just a picture of your friends or your roommates. You have to remember that in his eyes, you're golden, and sometimes, when you're unable to be there for him, he might just want someone familiar who he finds attractive to fill the void.
It's possible he's doing this so he doesn't lose his luster for you, too. Sometimes, men lose their interest too easily for the one they're with. He may not want to leave you, and wants to preserve your sex life.
