Gravitational force is only attractive; it has no repulsive component.
Coulomb force, however, is both attractive and repulsive.
When two charges are opposite, an attractive force arises.
For example, a positive charge and a negative charge attract each other.
When two charges are identical, a repulsive force arises.
For example, a positive charge repels another positive charge, and a negative charge repels another negative charge.
