I know what you mean. I had tried rogues a few times and it never clicked until I was bored enough to roll a female orc rogue during some extended downtime on my main server. This was back in the days when some of the mobs in the level 1-6 area were still red, and I got the quest to kill the burning blade big bad at the back of the neverending cave in the Valley of Trials.

I somehow managed to stealth all the way to the guy without aggroing any demons along the way, killed him, and then snuck out without detection. Made me rather happy to imagine the consternation when the demons realized, after some time had passed, that their boss was no longer among the living.

I love the class and still play her from time to time but only in solo quests. For whatever reason, rogues and groups never clicked for me. More than even a prot paladin or a hunter, rogues seem well designed for working on their own. Hard to imagine them following orders and just being another face in the crowd.
