Where the Dating Site Murderer meme comes from
The template draws on a stock photo of a smiling man that circulated on social media and image boards around 2012. The format was popularized on Reddit as part of the advice animal boom, using the contrast between an innocuous-looking face and murderous subtext for dark comedy.
How to caption the Dating Site Murderer meme
Write a sweet-sounding compliment a dating profile might send on top, then reveal in the second caption that the compliment is actually part of a horror-movie stalker's plan. Alternatively, use the format to joke about something totally benign in real life that sounds terrifying when stripped of context.

Best uses for the Dating Site Murderer template
Use the Dating Site Murderer template when the joke fits a situation format and the image can explain the feeling before the reader finishes the caption. It is strongest for relatable everyday moments, before-and-after jokes, and social observations.
This blank is 554 x 830 px and is a still image, so place the most important words where they stay readable after a feed crop. The tall frame gives you room for a short setup near the top and a payoff below the main subject.
The sample captions are more detailed, so trim aggressively before posting on small screens. Before exporting, read the caption once without looking at the image; if it still needs a long explanation, switch to a simpler setup or a more obvious related template.
Caption patterns to try
| Pattern | Why it works |
|---|---|
| Top: I'll always know exactly where you are / Bottom: because I share your location with myself | This works because it gives the reader a specific situation instead of a vague label. |
| Top: You'll never have to spend a night alone again / Bottom: I'm already in the closet | This pattern keeps the setup concrete, which helps the template carry the reaction. |
| Top: I love a woman who keeps her phone close / Bottom: it makes you so much easier to track | This is a useful direction when you want the punchline to feel personal or self-aware. |
Common mistakes with this blank
- Writing a caption that explains the whole joke instead of letting the Dating Site Murderer image do part of the work.
- Placing text over the most expressive part of the image, especially faces, gestures, signs, or the main action.
- Using three different ideas in one meme. This template works better when it points at one clear situation.
- Exporting before checking the meme at phone size. If the smallest words blur together, shorten the caption first.
