If you are surprised by your opponents move, you are not paying close enough attention to the fact that you are playing against an opponent.

I used to think that if the opponents move surprised me then they have blundered.

Most of my opponents' moves surprise me to some degree. I expect that.
The worst is how often my own moves surprise me each time I return to the board. :-(O)
