Calling someone "bitter"

If you use solely "bitter" to describe somebody,
what will that possibly mean?
Because that word has so many different meanings,
such as being jaded or being someone who's having pretty much everything difficult,
which meaning should it possibly have in such case?

Hi, When speaking of people, a bitter person is filled with anger at the injustice of a particular situation (unfair dismissal, for example). This person might also show feelings of hatred toward someone. Regards
