I surprised implies that you actually did the surprising. I was surprised, implies that something, or someone surprised you

When my duaghter came and told me that she got engaged, I was surprised to find that I had been kept in the dark.
I surprised him (my father) when I said that we had become grandparents.
These are only examples and not facts from my life.
Have a nice day.
