Acrobat auto populate fields issue

I have a form that is generated from a job application that I add form fields to so that the interviewer can easily fill out the needed sections. Recently when I am creating the form in acrobat it has been autopopulating field next to text that does not need a field. Originally this was not happening, and I cannot figure out how to get it to stop. I have included a screenshot for reference.

There isn't really a way to stop it from doing that. It probably picks up the text followed by a colon and then an empty space and thinks a field should go there. Just delete them manually after they are created.
