The molecular structure changes when the air hits the glue.

I don't really know. I just thought that seems to be the answer for so many other questions, and it sounded good !!!

Why don't people research to see if a question has been asked before? Never mind, they get points for re-asking.
Glue becomes stickier as it dries, with exposure to air. A full glue container, well-sealed, won't have the glue sticking to the side. A nearly-empty glue container *will* have glue begin to stick to the inside.
Diluting the glue with additional solvent, usually but not always water, delays the drying, both in the bottle and in use.

It takes air to tack up the glue. And the glue in the bottle gets no air because it is sealed. Glue does not stick to itself.

Because glue doesn't actually stick until it's dry. Ever seen a dried-out bottle of glue? It's stuck in there.

The same reason why nothing sticks to Teflon but Teflon sticks to the pan!

It has to be exposed to air in order for it to stick..when its in the bottle its not getting air :)
