If so, that'll make the text a header (larger and bold), which might explain why you didn't see any asterisks in the Markdown. A dividing line, ---
, needs an empty line above and below so that it doesn't format any nearby text.
If you want to use a series of dashes without the text becoming a header, put a backslash \

When you save the note, the dashes will have been "escaped" so won't do any formatting.
I hope that helps, but let me know if I'm off track here and I'll be able to help you further. :)
