Why are comets not seen both the time on going towards sun and away from it?

They are. We generally first see comets as they approach the Sun and become visible; if the comet survives the near approach to the Sun, we can continue to see them as they move away from the Sun. Depending on the comet's orbit as compared to the Earth's, we sometimes can't see the comet very well until after it is already moving away from the Sun.
And of course, the first three comets discovered in 2010 were all discovered by satellites watching the Sun - as the comets fell INTO the Sun.
