In magnet there is North side and South side in that magnet north & north will not be attracted ,South &south also will not be attracted but north south will be attracted why does N & N, S & S will not be attracted to each other why does only N&S are attracted to each other.

To answer this question, you just need to remember that the magnetic field lines start from the north pole of a magnet and end at the south pole of the magnet. Also, there is one very important property of these magnetic field lines, they do not cross each other.
Now consider a situation where you are bringing north poles of two magnets closer to each other. As the gap between the two magnets decreases, the gap between the magnetic field lines emerging from them also decreases. But as magnetic field lines cannot cross each other, they'll try to push the magnets apart to create more space. For this reason like poles repel.
Hope this helps.
Good luck.
