A thought about dark energy

IF dark energy can be seen as a pushing force, and that seems to be the general view, and capable of holding galaxies in place by an external force where does this pushing force cease??? somewhere outside the solar system?..somewhere just above our heads?..I ask exactly where does the push of dark energy stop and the supposed force of gravity attraction take over? I find it hard to see how a force that can hold galaxies in place externally stops somewhere outside our world..why would such a force be stopped by anything? Of course my point is simply I can not see that it would stop.. leaving the inescapable conclusion that gravity pushes through out the Universe.. I know its a thing with me but surely such an observation must suggest our current beliefs that gravity attracts must be reviewed.. The word "attraction" should be used to describe "boy girl things" not a force that manifests itself with a clear demonstration of pushing... If dark energy runs out of puff to allow "ättraction" to take over could someone who knows more please point out to me what I have wrong.. Needless to say I think attraction is an unsupported opinion I put down to human experience without consideration to what is being observed by cosmologists.. Is there one experiment that clearly demonstrates gravity attracts? Or is attraction just something we included without observations such as those of Abel 2029 (or Abell 2029).
When does the push of dark energy stop? and why does it stop where you may suggest such that the human experience can be entertained?.
