Expectation on someone? I am not familiar with this turn of phrase. Can you use it in a sentence?

I'm having similar trouble with "expectation of someone" and "expectation for someone". Maybe you could give examples?

"Expectation of something" is possible:

Lucy returned the wallet to its rightful owner in expectation of a reward.

Do you mean expectations of someone?

This usually means that you have high hopes of someone's future. The words high and great are usually used.

I have high expectations of him.

Like when you have started to be social with someone like what expectation should you have??
