Yep. And for the most part the answer you’ll get is just that "these are universal forces. Excepted as observably true, but the why is seemingly unknown beyond “it’s a universal force.”
We can mostly know what magnets are doing, but answering why it’s a universal force that just is, is a different matter. We just know electrons really don’t wanna touch each other, and I’m assuming if they did, matter wouldn’t exist.
I think you may have taken me too seriously, but if so that’s a very dismissive response. I think your reply would be improved by describing at least one (nigh-universal, so it applies to “things” in general) force and saying why it exists.
On the other hand… ”why do things fall down?” Now THERE’S a rabbit hole.

“down” is “just” a name for the direction everything falls.
Why do things fall? What happened to “a body at rest stays at rest”?
So they can learn to pick themselves up?
If no net forces are applied to that body. That’s what.
