Jim Iyke recently talked with Teju Babyface about his views on friendship, sharing that he prefers friends who do not need to talk all the time.
He said he might not be there for everyday things, but will show up when it truly matters, while he believes in having friends who understand and accept this way of being.
“We do not hang around emotions. We do not have time for it. That is why I cannot be friends with everybody. I need somebody that will not be hung up on my last act. I am too transitional for it.
“My propensity for growth is at an alacrity that you cannot keep up with. Who I was yesterday is different from who I am today. So it is not everybody that can keep up with that. I need somebody that I will not call for 10 weeks and he is not in his feelings.
“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 is not even a function of what you tell me, I sense that you need me. I am going to move every mountain. So you decide the kind of friends you want,” he said.

Reacting to this, netizens dropped the following comments:
Ayomiepat_: “Like he said, it’s very simple: just decide the kind of friend you want. You can have a mix of both types if you can manage it. Learn to understand the people you call friends and accept them the way they are.”
A_Abby_Abi: “This makes a lot of sense but some people will say, “if you matter, you’ll make time. Deep friendships don’t really need daily servicing.”
realFejiro: “So much facts in this. That’s why I don’t have much friends. I put logic before emotions.”
Inno4Chi: “I completely agree with him though I show up on my friends’ special days.”
kruszmedia: “Simple… Emotions ruined friendships most times.. especially when one is too emotional. You could have a thousand people you call friends but when you really need a friend they aren’t there”
