Why attraction? ((O}><{O))
Terms like "near infinitely small" or "near infinity" have no meaning ie. they are like saying holy war. We never have war and be holy, We can never be "near" infinity.
Humans do not and may never ever have an answer as to why mass attracts, rather we only know for sure, that if
mass-attraction did not exist, then our finite Universe would not exist.
We have different kinds of attractive forces. Ex opposite charges( +- )--- aka dipolar ---attract each other.
Gravity is said to not have a charge or if it has a charge it is all + or all - or all some other kind of charge humans have yet to identify as a 'charge'.
+ and - always seem to exist in conjunction with each other i.e. we have the magnetic dipolar set and the electric dipolar set and these two appear to only exist in conjunction with each other as bosonic photon or collected set thereof.
All of this appears to go back to the basics of motion ergo energy/energetic i.e. a integrated set of somethings that move in reference to each other.
Space in of itself has to primary subcategories non-occupied and occupied.
The occupied space is most often referred to generally as physical/energy with the subcategory of fermions and bosons. Gravity is presumed to exist within the bosonic category.
Maybe it would be more basic/fundamental to ask, why does motion attract motion? Why are these frequencies of occupied space attracted to these frequencies of occupied space?
Any biological that have vision is attracted to the movement of a somethingness in their vision.
Gravity implies/infers that our finite Universe is integrated as coherent whole by this mysterious force( bosonic ). This says to me that, there are two things called mass( OO or ** or ?? etc... ) that have a gravitational force between them that eternally--- or at least the life of the somethings and integrated whole somethingness ---connect those two in and attractive manner.
The term spin is often used as explanation to help explain classical and quantum phenomena. Spin is just one of 6 fundamental motions. I personally like to think of gravity being likened to a rubber band that will never break i.e. no matter how far it is stretched it not only does not break, it has and intrinsic property that pulls in back into itself--- aka contractive force ---.
Ok, so we do not yet answer why gravity( mass-attraction ) exists.
And that leaves the dark energy cosmological type repeling force anti-gravity(?) to be figured out. Here too perhaps we have to use a rubber band analogy and say that, the further will stretch the rubber band apart then when the greater the repling force that is created when it contracts back onto itself.
Personally this kind of analogy is simple and with more proper set of rubber bands or something similar, configured properly, we could see this repeling phenomena modeled more clearly. I dunno as I'm just a common human with simpleton-like characteristics who also wants to understand the cosmos basics/fundamentals and more specifically doing so in such away the does not require an higher education in mathematics.
Or as Paul McCartney sang " whats wrong with that, I need to know, cause here I go, AGAIN!!!!!".....

If the two masses did not attract-- mass-attraction ---our finite Universe would not exist.
Mesons( medial/medium ) = OO OO = two quarks = 1440 degrees = surface area of two tetrahedrons.
4 equaltorial/bisecting/great circles compose and define the spherical/spheroidal Vector Equilirbium/cubo-octahedron aka the operating system of Universe.
The strong nuclear force( mesons 2 quarks ) between hadrons-- proton neutron etc ---is often times confused with the strong sub-nuclear force( gluons ) of the nucleus that holds 3 quarks together as a hadron( proton or neutron ).
Hadron( heavy ) = OO OO OO = 6-GrCPP's of the spherical/spheroidal cube are same as the 6 GrCPP's of tetrahedron.
