no relationship when I should have had by now

I am not really interested in this coworker. It's more of a friendly invite, so I think it will go well
I only hope things with my love interest could have gone as smooth as this

You should treat 'love interests' as friends in that sense, and it will probably go just as smooth. Getting worked up around women you're interested in is very normal, but I don't think that helps one's chances in any way.

oh no, as of right now, on Facebook chat, a female work colleague whom I really don't have any interest is trying to chat me up and all I want to do is just to end the conversation.....
Why can't my target just be like that instead of this woman? <end of rant>

Getting to know people can never be a bad thing.

It frustrates me to see a guy like this: http://dandreamz.wordpress.com/2010/02/15/densha-otoko-the-revolutionary-love-story-of-an-otaku/
can get a girl (and they call it a "true" story) while I am constantly running into walls haha

He found happiness in his own way, nothing wrong with him. Its easy to be envious, but I don't think it serves much. For all of his issues, he did seem like he was pretty proactive in protecting the girl, too.
