"...why do we feel drawn together as a species,
I think it takes time for you to get to know each other before you disclose your true feelings and thoughts to a new friend. However, we may only express our true feelings and thoughts to other people selectively. Too often I will protect myself by not disclosing too much information to a newly-meet friend or co-worker. Perhaps it's because our brains are far more complicated than what we think.

I cannot agree more. Humans by instinct have a high emotional defence barrier. Information that has potential to injure in the future are kept hidden in the deepest recesses and are never divulged.
Looking from the other side of the fence, information you receive are deemed "safe" by that person. However, only you are privy to such information if given. Revealing such information to a 3rd party is walking into a minefield. Perhaps it is such indirect forms of injury that we fear makes us reluctant in revealing any information at all.
