If your 5th house is in Capricorn, does that mean your love life is going to be garbage?

I have a different take with this placement. Capricorn isn't that bad in the 5th house. The person will have a tendency to be more conservative. Usually, the person doesn't gamble and any investments or pleasures tend to be much more safe and long-tern in nature. As a rule, there are fewer children and often come late in life. If Saturn is poorly placed in a chart, there is a distinct tendency to b a domineering parent and to seek to control them. Lovers are usually not plentiful but, when there is a lover in one's life, that individual is usually treated responsibly and with respect. The person is also more steady in love matters and courtships are usually long.
