why is force attractive when the separation between body and force increases and potential increases and vice versa?

why is force repulsive when separation between body and force increases and potential decreases?

if PE/force is negative why attraction and if PE/force is positive why there is repulsion?

pls explain and prove the above points with suitable examples.

Explanation:

We know that by F=−dU/dx formula that when force is attractive in nature potential energy increases and when force is repulsive, potential energy decreases. But I don't exactly understand this concept. Whenever i think of repulsive force i feel that the potential energy between two bodies would increase but it's the other way around. Where am i wrong? Is there any example that would help me understand this better? Like what is an attractive and repulsive force anyway!
