Dido and Aeneas fell in love due to the intervention of the goddess Venus, who sought to protect Aeneas on his journey. During a storm sent by Jupiter, Venus arranged for Aeneas and Dido to meet in a cave, where they sought refuge and ended up sharing intimate moments. Their love was further fueled by divine influence and Dido's emotional vulnerability following her past traumas. Ultimately, their relationship is portrayed as tragic, reflecting the conflicts between duty and desire in the epic.

Does Aeneas see dido in the underworld?
Yes, but Dido refuses to talk to him. While this is true it is over simplified. Aeneas tells Dido that he is sorry and that he really didn't want to leave her but fate made him. Many times he refers to her as unhappy Dido. To which Dido replies that she does not want to speak with him and retreats to the arms of her husband, whom she was reconciled with in the Underworld. So to say she refuses to speak to him is not very good wording since she tells him she will not speak to him, perhaps she should have added further.
