Hades was such a looser and couldn't get a wife of his own so he went to Zeus (his brother and Persephone's father) and asked for Persephone's hand. He granted it knowing that neither Persephone nor Demeter would approve of it. Patriarchs be patriarchin'. So Hades lured upon Persephone and snatched her when he found her alone. Not cool.

Lets consider the fact that is just one version of the myth admittedly the most common. Also this is like the one time Hades actions can be construed as assholeish, most of the times Hades is either dealing with stupid people or people not fucking listening to him. Why do people not listen to the underworld god? He isnt fucking Loki or Odin he aint gonna trick you, your ass belongs to him sooner or later regardless.
