I am like you in this, I think. The way I usually frame it is that I tend to slice the plenum up into relationships rather than individuals, and individuals are just the focal point that certain sets of relationships have in common.
So when I identify with "characters" in fiction what I am usually identifying with is particular relationships, often transient ones.
I can't think of any particular examples right now, though.
