Eros becomes invisible to shoot Apollo with a love arrow to make him fall in love with Daphne. Because he was invisible and devious, he would was not detected by Apollo. In another myth, Eros falls in love with Psyche, against his motherÕs will. Aphrodite is jealous of Psyche. He becomes her Òinvisible husband.Ó If he was not sneaky, Aphrodite would have found out and punished him. In conclusion, Eros was undetectable.
