Hello, firstly I would like to say that I firmly believe 100% that time travel IS very much possible, no I havent done it myself, I would enjoy corresponding with other people on this subject and or on the subject of parallel universes etc.

 
Welcome!

Have you got any reason for such a strong belief, e.g.: encountered a time traveler, or is this a belief more like a desire, as in wanting it to be real?

 
About 20 years ago when I was living in Scotland I spent a lot of time around a close relative (who is now deaseased) and he knew a lot about things like this, I really believe he could and did do this, his attitude was so different to John Titor and those like him, I'm NOT saying John or anyone else are lying if they claim to be able to do it, you can get to know someone really well and know when they are lying etc and this relative well there was just something about him I believe it was genuine, for one thing if the internet was around then the very last thing he would do would be to come to a forum like this and talk about it he would be more likely to shout that time travel isn't possible etc, also the other difference is that he was totally convinced you CANNOT visit your younger or older self he was very adament about that, he would say if the two were in close proximity to each other it would be a very uncomfortable feeling, and dangerous, there were other little things too, but I don't remember all of them now but I'm convinced he was genuine

 
Hi Debra,

Welcome! Do you remember any particular stories or experiences this relative shared with you that stick out in your mind? I think it's safe to say many of us would love to hear more about your relative. :)

Please don't take the next words personal. I mean no disrespect to your deceased relative or you:
So, in your opinion, an individual being able to travel through time and know a lot about time traveling is more plausible than, let's say, a human being just lying to another? I find this intriguing, specially because people will lie for the most sorted reasons, including the most honest ones, like: denial, a person in need for attention, honest faith in something unreal, psychiatric disorders, not really thinking the person will believe what was meant to be just an entertaining story, and so on...

 
Thats okay Nicolas no offence taken, I'm sure a lot of people share your views, :) but when you get to know someone very well you can often tell when they are lying or for want of a better word bullshitting, and you really would have to know the person, I'm not saying he never lied because no that's not true but as I said you learn to tell,

Hannah01 Thanks but no I can't think of anything just now that stands out in my memory he always played it down but occasionally if I caught him off guard I would remember what he said.
