English term or phrase: Somebody's bitter
Commedia teatrale canadese. Dialogo tra un uomo e una donna sulle relazioni sentimentali.

A: I know if I was just getting into a relationship I wouldn't want to annoy the woman until I'd at least had sex with her. In fact, I fully expect that it's going to be the having sex with me that's going to annoy the woman in the first place.
B: You're not a very confident man, are you?
A: I'm a realist.
B: By the way, when you're just getting into a relationship, it's called making love. It's not called sex until later on when it just becomes sex.
A: Ouch. Somebody's bitter.

La mia proposta:

[...]
A: Oh, oh. Qualcuno ci è rimasto male.
Cerco soluzioni migliori. Grazie!

Qualcuno è un po' risentito


Explanation:
"Oh, vedo che qualcuno è un po' risentito"

Mi dà più l'idea di amarezza, legata magari al fatto di essere stata trattata male in proposito.
