Return to Question

Revised wording of question as previous wording was not great and not what I was intending to ask due to a gap in knowledge. I have since revised the question to more so reflect my question.

If the Weak nuclear force and Strong nuclearelectrostatic force areis so much stronger than the gravitation force, then how do black holes form?

I understand the basics and what not of black hole formation, however whenWhen most discuss black-holes, they refer to the 'singularity' at the centre. A point of theoretically infinite density at an infinitesimal point. However, if the Weak nuclear force and Strong nuclearelectrostatic force repelling the protons from each other is so much stronger than the gravitation force, then how do these form? The strong nuclear force keeps the protons bonded together in the nucleus with neutrons (to the best of my knowledge), but only works over a very short range, and the electrostatic force repels the like charges of the protons in the nucleus. In my mind, there isn't really a 'singularity', but more so just missing physics that is yet to be discovered (which is exciting). If these nuclear forces arethe electrostatic force is so much stronger than the gravitation force, would the repulsion of individual particles not outmatch the strength of the gravitation force, therefore keeping a true singularity from being possible to form?? What is occurring that allows gravity to condense this matter so close together?? (If you can't tell[I'm guessing you can due to this question], I have not yet finished my physics undergraduate yet. I was just pondering [and procrastinating actual assignment work] and thought this exchange might have some good answers for me and some further reading to look into). Thanks in advance :)
