Ahhh, my text book just says 1/r.
Well for a postive charge creating a field and a postive in the field, I'm not as confused because potential does change with 1/r because negative work is being done when it moves away, so moving away will leave it in a lower potential, since a potential hill is created for a postive charge in a field created by a postive charge, moving closer, decreasing r, increases the potential, I think.
