How is love viewed in Greek mythology?

Answer:
Aphrodite (Af-ro-dy-tee) is the Goddess of Love and Beauty. Her Roman form is Venus. She used to be the most beautiful person alive at that time and whoever claimed to be prettier than her was often blasted to pieces (according to myths). The planet was named after her because of its beauty and contrast with colors.
