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.
