Would you say that deep relating occurs outside of fellowship? That it is in part a function of context? For example, deep relating would occur if there are fewer people in a more intimate setting more conducive to sharing. I also think that deep relationships scare some people. A person shares too much, and the rest of the group feels a little uneasy. They think, "Why didn't this person share this privately, rather than corporately?"
You're definitely not the "stereotypical" extrovert. :) It's interesting to note that most stereotypical extroverts aren't deep relaters. It's the otter versus retriever (Trent & Smalley's Two Sides of Love) dichotomy although I know it could happen.
