Brief Explanations
Atoms have positively - charged nuclei. Like charges repel. When atoms get too close, the positive charges in their nuclei cause repulsion. Protons don't absorb other atoms' electrons in this simple proximity scenario, and neutrons don't form protons just due to atoms being close.
