Answer 1

Another item to add is that time isn’t an absolute thing going on in the background… it’s relative. There’s not a universal clock that you can say is more right then any other.

Some areas of space-time are warped relative to others. Wherever there’s energy (including mass) you’ll find space-time warped relative to you.
