We're talking about relationships specifically, and love is a venus thing; uranus is the unusual. Hence venus-uranus.

And no I'm not going to answer the question in terms of my personal opinions, I'm sticking strictly to astrology and not going off into a tangent that will just lead to people splitting hairs over what is or isn't 'unconventional', especially when coming to a consensus is futile because it's ultimately subjective anyway, and more likely than not that path of conversation will just lead to arguing and hostility.

I'm a Chinese guy born on a small island nation in South-East Asia, educated in Asia and the UK. She is a Southern girl from small country town in the US who has Anglo-French-Spaniard heritage. We meet in the largest metropolis in the US. We live in New England, which has a culture different from where we both grew up. When it was noon where she was born, it was midnight where I was born. So, it was literally on opposite sides of Earth. When I met her, I was drinking English Earl Grey tea out of a teacup. She was drinking Jasmine tea out of an Asian clay teapot. I spoke with a slight Brit accent She spoke with a Tennesse/Carolinian accent. We were both raised Southern Baptists though. Strange huh.

I don't feel set on anything or any kind of standard really. My boundary would be people falling in love and wanting to marry their animals. If you want a mail order bride - fine. Assuming everything is done legally and both parties are willing!!! That has to be a factor otherwise I won't go for it. However, I have a wide tolerance for all types of relationships that others like having. I don't "get" open relationships or marriages myself but if someone I know had one it isn't like I would picket them.

I grew up with my parents married, and during my later years my dad commuted back and forth from state to state. I grew up with a gay second cousin, and a gay best friend, and straight best friends and others' divorced parents. I'm just used to unconventionality. I feel like what kind of relationships people want are their business, and don't really care one way or another.

When it comes to MY relationship however, I always expect the man to make the move, and approach the topic of relationships. I feel pushy if I do, and I don't feel as wanted. I would never have an open relationship ever. And I hate old men hitting on me or seeing old men with much, much younger women (I think mainly because it reminds me of my own disgust when they hit on me.)

Astrological aspects:

Moon trine Uranus (pretty comfortable, dare I say gravitates towards the unconventional)
Moon trine Neptune (compassion, people like what they gonna like)
Venus in Aries in the 11th
Uranus and Neptune in the 7th house

For ME:

Moon in Taurus
Moon trine Saturn
Moon opp. Pluto
Sun and Venus square Saturn, which I suppose gives me a hint of submissiveness out of self-loathing.

Long distance is not really unconventional. I don't see anything weird about same sex or trans. Different political beliefs and religions is a little strange, I wonder how that would play out in the intimacy, lmao. But why it would strike me as strange is because people who are religious are VERY tied to their religion, and I know many who would NOT marry outside of their religious belief. I have my strongly Christian colleagues in mind. They view any other religion than their own as fundamentally wrong, and I can't see them marrying or even seriously dating a Muslim or Athiest, or even an Agnostic...but maybe more likely the latter. Differing political views may be more workable, now that I think about it.

I love interracial and intercultural relationships. Sometimes age gaps are strange, but mainly the +15 year difference ones. Anything under that I don't bat an eye at.

Married for 19 years. Getting married in 11 weeks is unusual too. Getting married against parents wishes isn't unusual, but flipping the middle finger to four parents is unconventional.

he doesn't like any labels like relationship, dating, seeing each other, etc.

okay

well that gets awkward sometimes, explaining my situation

people probably think I'm with some tool. But he treats me so right.

He says he is against marriage too. I wonder why, but I feel like it's too soon to ask. And I might freak him out. ha

But I'm just wondering, cause he is very smart and has some interesting opinions.

I wonder if it has anything to do with his parents divorcing. And his ex girl getting an abortion and not telling him until after.

he says how he feels putting a label on it ruins it.

And he can't stand it when girls go "so does this mean we are bf and gf now?"

I don't do that.

Honestly after what I've been though. I'm fine with not rushing and being all official right away, but forever? I don't know...time will tell if I will always be happy that way.

Sometimes I wonder what I'm doing, but it feels right and stable.

I'd say the top of my list of unconventional would be commitments to multiple partners. I but could never share like that. Hell no. It's me or the door, know what I mean? But it works for some people and like I said, more power to them.

Virgo is the sixth house cusp. Venus is Libra in the sixth house
Uranus is Virgo in the sixth house-they conjunct. Uranus also conjuncts pluto. Opposes moon, trine midheaven and sextile neptune.

I don't know if this has anything to do with anything but my fifth house has leo on the cusp and mars is in leo there. Then the virgo sun and jupiter conjunct also in the house

I am white (I was born and raised in US) but my mom is from England and I am first generation to the US. My husband is Mexican. He was born here but is First generation to US. Our cultural upbringings were very different let alone the interracial component. But we make it work and are very very much inlove after 8 years. We are truly soulmates.

BUT, I was married once before to who I will call M when I first met my now husband who I will call T. I was married to M for just 6 months as he was physially and emotionally abusive. I got out as soon as I realzied he was abusive. Anyway, I met T while we both were working as counselors at a high school working with at risk youth. There was an immediate romance and chemistry between us. Neither of us acted on it since I was married. Nor did we even mention what we were feeling until after we finally started dated and talked about all the feelings that had been going on. Okay so I felt horrible guilt after I met T because I couldn't stop thinking about him. I just kept thinking it was because I was in this aweful marriage. However, the moment I left M, T and I became close friends and it quickly turned romantic and it never stopped!

But all of this was quite a shock for both of us. My ASC in Cap and I have Saturn in the 7th. So having feelings so quickly like I did for T was overwhelming. It was electric, forbidden, and everything I had ever dreamed of. Just his physical appearance alone was what I had alwayed envisioned as my "ideal." And just being in his presence was overwhelming. And this was all before we even started dating. When we finally did start to date we kept it secret as we didn't want my ex to harass me anymore than he already had been. This is a very unconventional way to start to have feelings for someone and to start dating...secretive, while still legally married (filed papers but that takes 6months for fomalize)

To make this all more interesting for nearly two years, T did not believe in marriage and told me he would only be with me in a committed relationship (he has Venus Square Uranus). He said, there would be no marriage. But eventually something happened to him (Saturn in 4th conjunct my Saturn in 7th??? Or that Taurus Moon???) and of course changed and we are now married and have been married for going on 4 year. Together 8.

So you have for some unconventional ways:
-Interracial and intercultural marraige
-forbidden and secretive beginning to relationship
-He didn't believe in marriage initially

I have:
Sun Virgo/Venus 8th. My Sun is Parallel Uranus (Acts as a conjunction). Uranus is conjunct MC.
Sun square my Sag Neptune in the 11th.
In my 9th I have Mercury, Mars (Virgo) and Libra (uranus,Pluto). Mercury and Mars are opposed to Jupiter in the 2nd house.
I have Gemini in both 5/6th house.
Moon in Aquarius (1st) sextile Neptune (11th), trine Pluto (in 9th).

My husband T: Sun in Gemini in 3rd opposed to his Neptune in 9th in Sag. Jupiter in 1st Trine his Neptune. 7th house is Uranus and Pluto. He also has Uranus Sqaure Venus. Venus trine Neptune.

Our synastry:
His Sun trine Uranus
Mercury trine Uranus
Venus Square Uranus
Jupiter Opposed to Uranus
Saturn Square Uranus
Neptune Semi Square Uranus
Uranus Opposed to chiron
MC sextile Uranus

My moon Square Uranus
Venus quintile Uranus
Chiron opposed to Uranus
ASC quintile Uranus
MC conjunct Uranus
Jupiter Semi square Uranus

Poly-amory weirds me out. When I'm in a relationship I only have eyes for that person. I get the appeal of poly-amory but someone always gets hurt in those situations.

I may have Venus in Gemini opposite Sagittarius Uranus, but I'd say I'm pretty conventional in that I'm straight and into monogamous relationships.

I personally would not date certain religions, but it isn't because they are not of my same faith that I would not date them.

I would not date some religions because our values are so incompatible that it would be hard to build and sustain a happy, life-long marriage with those differences. I feel the same way about certain political views.

There are many denominations even within Christianity that I would not date.
