UITableView setSeparatorInset not working as expected

I am trying to create a custom insert for a divider in a UITableView. Here is my code for viewDidLoad

- (void)viewDidLoad {
    [super viewDidLoad];
    [self.tableView registerClass:[ChatTableCell class] forCellReuseIdentifier:@"ChatCell"];
    [self.tableView setSeparatorInset:UIEdgeInsetsMake(0, 65, 0, 0)];
}

      

        
        
        
      

    

Inserting a cell separator does not work correctly as shown. It works for some cells and not others. What am I doing wrong here?

This is how my viewcontroller.m file looks like

#import "ChatListViewController.h"

@interface ChatListViewController ()

@end

@implementation ChatListViewController

- (id)initWithStyle:(UITableViewStyle)style {
    //self = [super initWithStyle:style];
    self = [super initWithStyle:UITableViewStylePlain];
    if (self) {
        self.parseClassName = kChatRoomClassKey;
        self.paginationEnabled = YES;
        self.pullToRefreshEnabled = YES;
        self.objectsPerPage = 25;
        //[self.tableView setSeparatorInset:UIEdgeInsetsMake(0, 65, 0, 0)];
    }
    return self;
}

- (PFQuery *)queryForTable {

    if (![PFUser currentUser]) {
        PFQuery *query = [PFQuery queryWithClassName:self.parseClassName];
        [query setLimit:0];
        return query;
    }

    PFQuery *query = [PFQuery queryWithClassName:self.parseClassName];
    [query whereKey:kChatRoomUsersKey equalTo:[PFUser currentUser]];
    [query includeKey:kChatRoomUsersKey];
    [query orderByDescending:@"updatedAt"];

    [query setCachePolicy:kPFCachePolicyCacheThenNetwork];

    // If no objects are loaded in memory, we look to the cache first to fill the table
    // and then subsequently do a query against the network.
    //
    // If there is no network connection, we will hit the cache first.
    if (self.objects.count == 0 || ![[UIApplication sharedApplication].delegate performSelector:@selector(isParseReachable)]) {
        [query setCachePolicy:kPFCachePolicyCacheThenNetwork];
    }

    return query;
