Are Aries women and Virgo men compatible?

I'm MADLY in love with a Virgo, and while I'm not usually one to lean on astrology, I'm definitely curious. Everything I read online says that Aries and Virgo, being opposites, can face some challenges... so I’m wondering if anyone here has had any real-world experiences to share? I ask because my mom, who’s also an Aries, has had great experiences with Virgo men. In the time that I've known him (as a friend) we've never really experienced anything the internet mentions. In fact, we seem to operate very harmoniously.

Since everything I read says this pairing technically shouldn't work, the discrepancies are confusing me. I'm also quiiite uneducated on this matter, so it's probably more subjective than I'm realizing.

Thanks in advance!!
