Why is it that the earth is not affected by the Moon's gravity?

What was the distance from the Earth to the Moon at its formation?
The Moon was - probably - formed when a planet perhaps as large as Mars collided with the Earth. The mass blown out of the Earth merged with the fragments of the other, now destroyed, planet to form the Moon. How far apart are two colliding cars? Zero.
