Why I Can’t Be Friends With Everybody – Jim Iyke

Veteran Nollywood actor, Jim Iyke, has revealed why he struggles with friendships, as he shares the qualities he wants in a friend.

The Nollywood bad boy as he’s fondly called disclosed that he can’t be friends with people who hold grudges, amongst others things.

Speaking as a guest on a podcast hosted by comedian Teju Babyface, he explained that his tendency for growth is very high that many can’t keep up with.

Jim Iyke also added that he can move mountains for his friend if he senses the person needs him.

In his words:

“We don’t hang around emotions. We don’t have time for it. That’s why I can’t be friends with everybody,”

“I need somebody that won’t be hung up on my last act. I’m too transitional for it. My propensity for growth is at an alacrity that you can’t keep up with.

“Who I was yesterday is different from who I am today. So it’s not everybody that can keep up with that. I need somebody that I won’t call for 10 weeks and he is not in his feelings.

“There’s a time I didn’t call him for 4 months and he didn’t call me either. We don’t have to. But when we call, it’s value.

“I don’t want a friend that I am in your life every day. It’s never going to work because I will never show up for your kid’s birthday.

“You find me wanting at your anniversary. When you have certain issues I might not be the one to reach. But I tell you, when you call me and I sense that it’s not even a function of what you tell me, I sense that you need me, I’m going to move every mountain. So you decide the kind of friends you want.”
