And then I learned..

Wait...then what does it mean?

Me too! No one ever told me otherwise so I used to put two spaces between each word on all of my papers for 3 years

Okay my 1st comment got screwed up. It's how many times you hit enter between each line or you can preset it to automatically double space for you

My mom used to believe this too when she discovered microsoft word.

I remember writing a whole essay by pressing the space bar twice after each word

I was told to press tab.

I'm 24 and I just learned this. My whole life is a lie.
