Meaning
This line reads as a sharp joke about how relationships can change people, sometimes to the point that the original complaint no longer fits. It can be taken to mean that the very traits someone tried to reshape later become the source of frustration. It lands in the familiar moment when a couple is arguing over habits, and the irony is hard to miss.
