How do I make it so my Ipod and Iphone aren't connected?

I already had an Apple Id for my ipod and i just got an iphone and was told to use the same Apple Id. But now everything I add to my phone gets added to my ipod and everything I add to my ipod goes to my phone. I use them for completely different reasons and dont need all of that stuff on both devices. Is there a way to do that without creating a new apple id?

Yes. Creating a second Apple ID is not necessary and creates issues for things that you may want to share.
You can go to Settings > iTunes & App Store and turn off Automatic Downloads: Music, Apps, Books, Updates (any or all of those) to prevent new purchases made on the other device from downloading to the current device. You can manually delete any apps etc that have already downloaded to a device before you made the change to that setting.
You can also go to Settings > iCloud and turn off Contacts, Calendars, etc for those items that you don't want to sync from one device to the other via iCloud.
