Note my corrections above. You really need to concentrate on the spacing around punctuation. Please make sure you follow these basic rules at all times:
- Never put a space before a comma.
- Always put a space after a comma.
- Never put a space before a full stop.
- Always put a space after a full stop.
- Never put a space before a question mark.
- Always put a space after a question mark.
- Never put a space before an exclamation mark.
- Always put a space after an exclamation mark.
We simply wouldn't use "You must have had a hard time" to express surprise. It could be an exclamation if it was something like "Wow!! You must have had a really hard time!"
