Currently, dark energy seems to be a "fifth" force that seems to conteract gravity at large distances.
However, there could be many more forces that we don't know about. For example, what if every dominant force we know is result of a strong force overpowering a weaker force?
In the case of "dark energy" and gravity, gravity is just a small fraction stronger than dark energy. So it takes a lot of mass to have a reasonable gravitational field. But like the strong and weak nuclear forces, gravity is only stronger than "dark energy" at relatively short distances. As the distances increase, dark energy overpowers gravity and pushes objects away from each other.
It's something to think about. Counteracting forces, especially if one of them is dominanting, would be difficult to discern.
But that's just one example. There could be many others that we just haven't experienced yet. These may be all there are. Scientists are making new discoveries everyday so only time will tell.

Because anyone has failed to give a proper answer, no. There are only four elementary forces: strong and weak nuclear, electromagnetic, and gravitational, in decreasing order of strength.
Strong nuclear occurs in nuclei in atoms; weak nuclear occurs between nuclei and electrons. Electromagnetic acts between charged bodies, and gravitational occurs between any two objects (even you and your computer). This accounts for any and all physical interactions. Furthermore, it should be noted that while the first three are inherently related, there is much difficulty relating gravity to the other three in terms of basic relationships.

There are technically four forces, strong nuclear, electromagnetic, weak nuclear, and gravity in order of decreasing strength.
However weak nuclear and electromagnetism have been combined into the electroweak force, because it has been shown that they're two aspects of the same interaction.

nicely we could only see Love is a helpful feeling which you cant administration. it extremely is something that may no longer seen yet you are able to experience. it extremely is the main helpful bond between 2 individuals which couldn't often get broke in spite of if it extremely is right love. Love will make human beings do loopy and unexplainable issues. it extremely is helpful and you dont even understand that it extremely is there until its long gone. Love is great and you may embrass it no longer deny it. choose for romance.

It's called PMS. It seems pretty wide spread & no one can predict exactly when it's going to hit or how hard. I've heard the clean up is pretty messy.
