Are the attractive and repulsive forces between two magnets the same?

What is the relationship between the attractive and repulsive forces of magnets?

When two equally spaced magnets touch each other, the attractive force between the two equally spaced magnets is 5-10% stronger than the repulsive force between the equally spaced magnets. This is due to the arrangement of the molecular magnets in the magnets, which are arranged parallel to each other in one magnet. The more regular the arrangement of the molecules in the magnet, the stronger the magnet.

When two unequal poles attract each other, one magnet supports the parallel arrangement of the molecular magnets in the other magnet, which makes both magnets stronger.

However, when two equal poles repel each other, one magnet interferes with the parallel arrangement of the molecular magnets in the other magnet, which makes both magnets weaker.

However, if you pull them far enough apart, they will return to their original order and thus their original strength.

As the distance between the two magnets increases, the molecular magnets are almost unaffected by the other magnet, and the attractive force is almost equal to the repulsive force.

The following figure shows the experimental data of a large circular magnet D45*30MM. The X-axis is distance and the Y-axis is force. It proves that the attraction (blue) of the magnet is slightly stronger than the repulsion (red). When the distance is 4cm, the attraction and repulsion are both 5 kg.
