How it looks in the editor does not matter. What matters is how it looks on the website. The website uses the theme’s stylesheet to determine styling, including spacing. The editor does not look at the site’s stylesheet. Plan to make it look good on the website.
If you are creating a new paragraph when you press enter (check the html view of the editor), then you need to go to your theme’s stylesheet (Appearance > editor) and edit your p tag properties, for example
p {
margin-bottom: 10px; /* Gives you a 10px space between each paragraph */
}
i have this: .com h3 {margin-bottom: 15px;}#commentform p {margin-bottom: 5px;}#
but i dont seem to have p {
margin-bottom: 10px;
Your best bet is to post a URL of a site page that has this issue and needs adjusting, with description of what you want adjusted. Then someone can give you the CSS needed with your specific theme to make that happen.

see the space between “code” and “from”
I want to decrease it… it only occurs when i hit enter while typing a post. thanks!!
The css that is causing the extra spacing is this
.list-3 p {
padding-bottom:7px;
}
if you change it, it’s going to change more than just that one line to tighten up, which may not be what you want. But try it to confirm what I said.
If that is a problem, you can define a new class, I call it something like no-bottom
.no-bottom: { margin-bottom: 0; padding-bottom: 0 }
the line of HTML looks like this:
<p>code: medical billing and coding experts 3293</p>
change it to this:
<p class="no-bottom">code: medical billing and coding experts 3293</p>
