It's not entirely clear what you are doing: are these genuine lines 
(separated by line breaks: Shift+Enter) or paragraphs (separated by 
paragraphs breaks: Enter)? But in any case, what you are seeing is 
almost certainly created by the automatic numbering facility 
available in Writer.

Two solutions:

o The changes you don't want are AutoCorrections. If you go to Edit | 
Undo or press Ctrl+Z *immediately you see the change*, the correction 
will be cancelled, leaving what you actually typed.

o If you want to disable this facility completely, remove the tick 
from Tools | AutoCorrect Options... | Options | Apply numbering - symbol: *.

I trust this helps.
