i am female snake 8.21.89 and my boyfriend is male tiger 3.27.86 . can we make it work? any tips?

i know we are not a good match but we are very passionate about each other. we have so much in common and have a lot of fun together but when we try hard to talk about our problems but are not good at communicating and sometimes i think we have bad timing. but we are so into each other. i care about him deeply and really want to make it work - what can i do? is too much physical bad for our relationship? also he seems to be very happy with his career will that continue? is there anything i can do to help him with his work? i feel like there is more i can do to be more supportive but he seems distant when we talk about his work
