“Why I don’t have many friends” – Veteran Actor, Jim Iyke Reveals (VIDEO)
Famous veteran Nollywood actor, Jim Iyke has revealed why he struggles to make friends with people who keep grudges.
During an interview at the ‘Deep Dive’ podcast, hosted by comedian Teju Babyface, Jim Iyke explained that his propensity for growth is at an alacrity that many can’t keep up with.
In his words, Jim Iyke explained;
“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.”
Jim Iyke’s revelations offer a glimpse into his unique approach to relationships, underscoring the importance he places on personal growth and meaningful connections.
