otherwise the force would be unequal and pointless because nothing will be acting against it and everything would be stationary
Pairs!
Yes, but not nesicarially equally. "In every interaction, forces always occur in pairs. For example, in walking across the floor you push against the floor, and floor pushes against you. Likewise, the tires of a car push against the road, and the road in turn pushes back in the tires. In swimming you push the water backward, and the water pushes you forward. There is a pair of forces acting in each instance. The forces in these examples depend on friction; a person or a car on ice, by contrast, may not be able to exert the action force against the ice to produce the needed reaction force." -Conceptual Physics by Paul G. Hewitt
Pairs - although monopoles have long been speculated about!
Yep. But this is Newton's THIRD law of motion. He actually came up with three laws of motion that we use today.1: An object in motion will remain in motion and an object at rest will remain at rest unless acted upon by another force.2: An object acted upon by a force will accelerate in the direction of that force.3: Forces always act in equal but opposite pairs.-(Basic definitions!)-
true
pairs!
Newton's Third law: Action and Reaction forces.
Pairs they always come in pairs!
Pairs!
Newton's Third law of motion. This stated that with every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. This proves that with one force, an equal and opposite counter-force will always also exist, thus proving that forces are always present in pairs.
Forces that come in pairs are called action-reaction pairs. This is based on Newton's third law of motion, which states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.

In pairs. Newton's third law.
Yes, but not nesicarially equally. "In every interaction, forces always occur in pairs. For example, in walking across the floor you push against the floor, and floor pushes against you.

Sort of; it's true as stated, but remember that any measured force may be the resultant of two or more initial forces. But the end result is identical to two equal & opposing forces.
When a force is exerted on an object, the object exerts an equal and opposite force back on the object applying the force. This is known as Newton's third law of motion and explains how forces always come in pairs. This interaction allows for motion and equilibrium to occur.
