One thing I would worry about is that monkeys tend to get playful and tease, even to the extend of rubbing you the wrong way. You might feel that you are not being taken seriously. This can be a source of conflict, as your tiger nature will not let you be taken for granted or taken lightly. You will want to fight back. It's still a workable situation, if you can talk and be honest with each other.

Oof. I am a female Tiger I HAD a relationship with a male Monkey. It was a very grating annoying relationship. He was too foolish for me and extremely controlling....his way was THE way. He wanted me to be meek. HA! We had fun together BUT we were horrible at the relationship stuff. He insisted on marriage, I said no, no, no. What bothered me most was he came after me at a weak vulnerable time and when I started to heal, regain myself....I wasn't so cute to him anymore. To me this was predatory behavior. I do not like Monkeys.
