If you feel pretty bad and guilty for hurting someone, but at the same time, you do it knowing you hurt someone; do you think you're a good person? For example, you go on a dating app knowing it will make someone (not a bf/gf or a date) who really loves you upset.

You can try to justify what you are doing and cover it up by claiming to feel guilty but that doesn't change anything. You still did it and you continue to do it.
When you do something bad and are sorry about it and vow to never do it again then you've learned a lesson and ultimately if you follow that vow, what you did may be forgivable. You may then become a changed and good person.
When you knowingly do something bad and keep on doing it you are not a changed person. Claiming you feel guilt is either a flat out lie and a cheesy way to try and excuse what you do, or it a deep psychological problem. Guilt makes you stop if It's real.
So the answer is no it does not make you a good person. It simply adds to your bunch of bad because you are trying to excuse yourself and you are lying.
Why not think about this proverb.... Proverbs 21: 15 It is a rejoicing for the righteous one to do justice, but there is something terrible for those practicing what is hurtful.
You really need to start dealing wisely with yourself. When you do that, you will learn to deal wisely with others. Learn to treat others in the manner you would like to be treated. You can change the situation if you honestly and sincerely want to.
