Andromeda is moving closer because it and our galaxy are gravitationally bound and are in mutual orbit - on those scales gravity overpowers the pressure of DE. Same with stars. DE works on intergalactic scales where distance between objects precludes any kind of significant gravitational interaction.

Simply, other, stronger forces are at work here that aren't elsewhere.
