Because like repels like, magnetically. Within the atomic nucleus, those poor little protons and neutrons (all Quarks) are strugling to get out of their sardine can, but the Gluon brigade suck them back in. A further conspiracy to confine the quarks into a mass-body is perpetrated by the lusty electron. Being of unlike polarity, they are voracious in their attraction for the sexy quarks, and surround them en-masse, so to speak, further confining the quarks to their mass-body.

Masses don't repel each other. The effect that _fast_ masses colliding will go apart again is conservation of momentum, gravity has nothing to do with that.
