Difference of asymptotes at infinity
Here's a hint: Note that $$ f(x)-g(x) = \biggl(\frac{f(x)}{g(x)}-1\biggr)g(x) .$$ Then look at the two factors on the right hand side. The first approaches zero, by assumption. What might happen if the other factor is bounded? Not bounded?
Another, less rigorous but perhaps more entertaining way to look at it: It's the difference between relative differences and absolute differences. Take any two of the five richest people on the planet. In relative terms, they are about equally rich. But if I could have the difference between their absolute wealths, I could certainly retire tomorrow. What might be a small difference to them is a huge difference to me.

$$\lim_{+\infty}\frac {f (x)}{g (x)}=1$$
means that for $x $ great enough,
$$f (x)=g (x)(1+\epsilon (x)) $$ with $\epsilon (x)\to 0$ when $x\to +\infty$. thus
$$f (x)-g (x)=g (x)\epsilon (x) $$ from here, we see that $$\lim_{+\infty}(f (x)-g (x)) $$ depends strongly on $\epsilon (x) $.
Note that $f(x)-g(x)=f(x)\left(1-\frac{g(x)}{f(x)}\right)$. Although $\lim_{x\to\infty}\left(1-\frac{f(x)}{g(x)}\right)=0$, but if $\lim_{x\to\infty}f(x)=\infty$, we cannot tell whether $\left[f(x)\left(1-\frac{g(x)}{f(x)}\right)\right]$ tends to $0$ or not.
