That's part of the mirror function, to create a mirrored duplicate and attach it to the original object.
If you just want to create a mirror of the object but not attach it, just create a duplicate of your object and in the top part of your tool bar, you'll see an X, Y, and Z button. Click on one of them to flip your object on the plane that you want it mirrored, then go to "surface" in your menu then hit "flip normal" to make sure the surfaces are facing outward.
