This is from an FAQ that comes with my particle system documentation:

Can I get the particles to interact with each other?
No. This particle system does not support particle interaction. It would
be very difficult to implement in a satisfying way in a system aimed at
so different uses as this system is. Particle interaction is better
suited for more specialized systems that are aimed at specific goals,
like for example simulating liquids. Besides, particle interaction would
not be compatible with all features of this particle system, such as
cyclic animation.
