Should I quit dating

I have been single my entire life ,I’m almost 27, I have been able to get a girls number and I’ve hung out with girls but never actually been in a relationship, I usually get ghosted especially on dating apps. I decided to do something bold, I made a boyfriend application and passed them out to women I managed to get a girl to text me. I was talking to this girl and we had so much in common we both loved superheroes, video games and just being a nerd. I was super excited to finally have a relationship; however, She came clean and said she was only messaging me to make her ex jealous and that she was going to go back to him because she still loved him, tbh I was very disappointed at this point it feels like dating is just a game that you can never win, should I just give up I’m tired of the constant ghosting, drama and lying. Am I the problem? Do I just have bad taste in women? Or should I keep trying in hopes that I find the right one?
