how to position lists inside multirows and fix cline error with vertical lines

Question

I am quite a newbie so please forgive my ignorance. Well they say 1 picture = 1000 words, so this is kind of what i want to achieve:

Now my attempt through latex lead to this:

So I guess my problems are: 1) how can I fix the vertical lines? (This must be related to \cline command...) 2) how can I position the lists in a better way? By that I mean, that all lists will fill in the whole length of their columns (maybe I could adjust the spacing between the items too). My guess is that the "&" symbol except for separating columns also aligns text making things a bit complicated Thanks in advance!!!

Is the different vertical white space between consecutive items intentional? Please also add a minimal example document that shows how you achieved your current output. — leandriis, Mar 12 '20 at 20:23
Oups sorry for not posting a snippet of my code..i will edit my initial post with it.Thank you. About the white space, it's not intentional, not really..I was just experimenting.. — maneedos, Mar 12 '20 at 23:12

As a place to start from.

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{tabularx}
\usepackage{makecell}
\renewcommand{\theadfont}{\normalsize}
\usepackage{enumitem}
\newlist{tabenum}{enumerate}{1}
\setlist[tabenum,1]{nosep,leftmargin=*,before=\vspace{-0.5\baselineskip},after=\vspace{-1\baselineskip},label*=\arabic*.,leftmargin=*}
\usepackage{calc}
\newcolumntype{L}{>{\raggedright\arraybackslash}X}

\begin{document}
\noindent
\begin{tabularx}{\textwidth}{|@{}L|L|L|}
\hline
\thead{Title 1:} & \thead{Title 2:} & \thead{Title 3:}\\
\hline
\begin{tabular}[t]{p{\linewidth-\tabcolsep}}
\begin{tabenum}
  \item item
  \item item
  \item item
  \item item
  \item item
  \item item
\end{tabenum}\\
\hline
Others:\\
\hline
\begin{tabenum}
  \item item
  \item item
  \item item
  \item item
  \item item
  \item item
  \item item
  \item item

\end{tabenum}\\
\end{tabular}&
    \begin{tabenum}

      \item item

      \item item

        \end{tabenum} \\

My answer is basically the same as leandriis, but I just wanted to point out that you can use arraystretch to change the spacing in a tabular environment. — Danny Kam-Gordon, Mar 12 '20 at 21:32
Thank you both for your answers..@leandriis your reply seems to be completely different from how i was trying to acieve it but yours is much better i believe..i am gonna experiment a little bit with it and return. I have noticed though that i may have some issues with aligning in the center and maybe filling more space but as i said i should give it a better try and may twist some things..thanks again — maneedos, Mar 12 '20 at 23:19
hey, i think @leandriis has actually given the solution so..case closed:) may i also ask how can i increase the space between the different items? — maneedos, Mar 16 '20 at 00:30
