Correct -- Either the OP has a mapping, or mis-typed 
"shift+J"/"capital J" which does as described (joins with extra 
whitespace.
   :help J
   :help gJ
I find that by the time I think about whether I want whitespace 
added or not, typing the "g" is less overhead than remembering a 
non-standard mapping, so I just use the stock J/gJ when joining.
As an aside, it can also be done as an Ex command, using either
   :j
   :j!
which can be nice in a global command like
:g/pattern/,+3j
to join every line matching /pattern/ with the following 3 lines.
