Borders around paragraph blend with each other

[enonod]

Would somebody be kind enough to explain why my Text Box paragraph style does not work in the attached file?
I want to start a new paragraph and choose whether to have a box or not. If I do I want it separate.
The only way it works is if I leave an empty paragraph between.

Thanks for sharing the problem with the sample file. I have corrected the file as the middle border was missing, please check the attached file.

Thank you SuperTech but I perhaps was not clear.
I am trying to have a boxed paragraph, press enter and produce another boxed paragraph but with a slight gap showing that they are paragraphs.
However, I get a single box that then looks like one paragraph.

The only way I can show the separation is by a blank paragraph in between, which is quite large.
Further advice would be welcome.

As these borders are around the paragraphs, no gap can be added in the borders, but as you mentioned the only solution is to add a blank line.

You can customize the paragraph spacing and line spacing to reduce this blank space so that it will look like a gap.

Thank you SuperTech for your confirmation. Yes I could use a very small Next Style, Paragraph Style
