I think that Elros saw the grief that comes with immortality. He passed on and never saw the evil of the days of the end of the Third Age. He never had to endure the death of his great great great great great grand children...
Immortality sounds great to us mortals.. but I think living forever can also be a curse. Remember that the only way outside of being killed for an Elf to die was to die of grief. What a horrible way to die!
