on us?
Gravity doesn't act on us
The Earth is closer to us than the Moon
Our mass doesn't change so the pull is really the same

Answer:With gravity, two things with mass will want to move toward each other. However, we humans don't feel our gravity pulling on another person because it's not very big, but we do all feel the pull of Earth's gravity all the time - we're not all floating in the air, because that would be happening without Earth's gravity!
