Neptune in the fifth house makes love, creativity, children and stage a space of dream. The person vitally needs inspiration: infatuation, play, music, film, dance, a beautiful image, the feeling that life is larger than daily routine. This is a strong placement for acting talent, voice, plasticity, pedagogy, art, work with children, romantic literature and everything where the person can infect the audience with feeling.
But in love Neptune easily turns a real partner into a myth. The native may fall in love not with a person, but with an image, save, wait, endure secret romances, prohibitions, unavailability and drama. The source directly mentions "Romeo and Juliet" plots: love becomes theater where suffering seems proof of depth. Under affliction this may lead to chaotic connections, loss of one's own "I", manipulation, secret relationships and destructive decisions for the beloved.
