I'm not sure you can really say what a god's personality is. There's no concrete description of their personalities, just what they represented to the Greeks/Romans. If you're looking to create a personality for him, here are some points to keep in mind:

1. Eros was the god of sexuality, not really love. Love plays a role in sex, of course, but Aphrodite was attributed the more human trappings of romance. Eros was about the base desires that go into love and attraction.

2. Eros was either a primordial deity (sprung from Chaos) or a son of Aphrodite (Venus) and Ares (Mars).

3. Eros married Psyche, a beautiful mortal who he made a godess. You should look up that myth. It's pretty easy to find on the internet, and it's one of my favorites. (It's also pretty long.)

4. Eros leads the Erotes, a band of winged gods associated with different aspects of love. All of the others are sons of Aphrodite and Ares. They're famous for pulling tricks of the romantic kind, and have some associations with homosexual love. They are part of Aphrodite's retinue.

Of the (female) goddesses there is only one, Nemesis, originally the name of the goddess of retribution. Being someone's nemesis still means in English: being the person who brings about somebody's downfall.Most other words directly derived from the names of Greek gods have their origin in the name of male Greek gods: Typhon (the storm god), Aether (the air god), Uranus (the sky god), Oceanus (the ocean god), Atlas (the god who carries the globe), Eros (the god of physical love), Hermaphroditus (the god with male and female genitalia) and - in a way - Chaos, the breeding ground that created the Greek gods.
