A trine is not better than a square or vice-versa, it's just energy manifested in a different way.
Somebody with a Moon/Venus square in their chart already has a connection between their Moon and Venus, their Moon and Venus energies are integrated within themselves. It's a modal integration. They need somebody with a specific set of characteristics reflecting their modal connection between their Moon and their Venus.
For example, a man with Moon in Capricorn Venus in Libra: a beautiful, charming girl with good social skills but who is also a steadfast, protective, emotionally stable and balanced partner. And overall a rather bossy, dominant, ambitious personality reflecting the cardinal mode.
They just need a partner who emphasizes or satisfies that modal need. A lot of fixed energy for a fixed Moon/Venus square, a very mutable person for the mutable square etc, of course in the context of the whole chart and the signs where they are located.
The man with the square already has this partner built inside them as Anima, and the woman has an Animus reflected by the square.
I think it's just the opposite of what you describe. Somebody with no connection between their Moon and Venus in their chart is more "flexible" in his/her choices, open to many things, many types of partners. But someone with Moon square Venus knows exactly what he/she wants, has a specific image in their minds regarding how their partner should be: a specific combination described by their square. Which makes them PICKY.
I disagree with Chiron in the 7th house as being doomed in relationships. It's quite the opposite. Chiron is a lesson, and an "awakener". In this life, the native with a 7th house Chiron will learn to give in order to receive in relationships. Compromises are not accepted by Chiron. It is true that this learning happens through pain, through a wound, because this is how we learn, without pain there's no learning, and Chiron in 7th has the chance of not only feeling, but also healing this wound in this life. He/she can also become a great marriage counsellor.
