I have Venus conjunct Descendant (OOB Venus Capricorn 2'01 7th/Descendant Sagittarius 29')

I tend to be relationship oriented, yes. I love love. I will also do whatever I can to help the people I care about/love as long I don't feel like they'll make fun of me or use me,and even then perhaps...
many times I tend to give people the benefit of the doubt even if my intuition says I shouldn't trust them.
I feel like this aspect, at least for me, may be similar to a Venus/Neptune aspect,Venus/Jupiter aspect and/or Venus in Libra.

With Venus in opposition to your Ascendant, you may be blessed with many social graces. You're quite comfortable around other people, and may enjoy time spent with companions. Your determination to gain acceptance and to improve your status in life is strong, and you may use your social contacts to reach those positions. Of course, that's how it's done in life, but you do need to watch a tendency to use people just because of their status. Developing relationships from a purely honest perspective is quite possible for you since you do appreciate what others have to offer. You must also learn to appreciate what you bring into any situation as well.

I agree with most of this, except the bit about being a status seeker – I hate that actually.

Venus in Square, Quincunx, Opposition to Ascendant
You are a naturally attractive person and other people find it easy to relate to you. The image you project is very important to you and you will usually invest whatever time and effort you feel necessary on grooming, the right clothes, etc. You do this because you may feel more than just a hint of chronic dissatisfaction with yourself. Even at your absolute best, you still feel as though there's room for improvement.

All true, sadly. I am very hard on myself about my looks and I have the closets and make-up drawer to prove it!

Ascendant Opposite Venus
You are drawn to truly refined and sophisticated people, not so much to the ones who substitute glitter for class. You are well mannered and people generally have a good opinion of you. You make concessions if it seems necessary to maintain harmonious relations, and you refuse to judge someone whose conduct does not come up to your expectations. Frequently you give people the benefit of the doubt and see in them qualities they do not possess. You want to believe that you associate only with persons of the highest character and you are disappointed if they do not measure up.

Although you appear self-confident and assured, the fact is that you are not comfortable unless you have someone beside you to give you the support you need. It is difficult for you to stand alone. There is no deception in your claim that you are happy to meet people, because you truly enjoy their company and conversation. You work hard, although subtly, to make sure that people are warmly disposed toward you, and you try to emphasize your better qualities to prove you are worthy of their friendship. To put others at ease you play the innocent role and make it clear that you are not a threat them. You hope no one perceives your negative qualities and discovers how insecure you really are.
Your best publicity agents are your friends, who freely extol your virtues when anyone asks them. In the company of your superiors or people you admire, you tend to be shy. You are always on the lookout for ways to improve your social status, and prefer the company of successful people or those who are obviously on their way up.

You have no qualms about forming close relationships with people who are financially secure if this will increase your chances of a permanent association. On the surface you are docile, gentle, and charming, but underneath you conspire and connive to make a better life for yourself through the people in your environment. Having a partner and a close love relationship is of the utmost importance to you because it allows you to satisfy most of your personal needs, sexual and emotional. Your personality blooms when you are united with someone else for you do not feel really whole if alone.

You are an excellent and very loving partner who lavishes affection on your companion because he or she is the source of much that is important in your life. Just be careful not to let a partner take advantage of your good nature and generosity, making sure that he or she returns in kind.

If there is abuse of your good nature, you tend to ignore it, believing that a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush. You should not do that however, because if you drop an unsatisfactory affair, your natural inclination toward partnership will draw perhaps a better partner to you quite quickly.

Be selective in your generosity, and your love affairs will blossom fully and last longer. If you are tolerant of faults in the short run but demand that they be eventually corrected, you will both benefit in the end. Albeit, you are more likely than most to have a solid loving partnership which will be one of your major rewards.

When I was younger I was all about seeing a person's potential, I have grown out of that! I am very, very affectionate (Venus in Leo) and again, when I was younger people took advantage of that. Now that I am older…

Venus Opposite Ascendant: Your married life is harmonious because you marry for love and are devoted to your mate. You're popular and attract happiness since you're diplomatic, tactful and take others' happiness into consideration. Your ability to get along with others and your grace and ease in dealing with the public helps you to achieve success. If Venus is in the sixth house, health may suffer, especially your kidneys and your head (you have quite a few headaches.) If Venus is in the seventh house, you have positive business relationships
