I get that there are 3 dimensions of space and only one dimension of time, but it still seems like you should be able to go both forward and backward. It’s like if you had a 1-dimensional space (which I assume would be an infinitely thin line, correct me if I’m wrong) you could still go both left and right.

Einstein didn’t originally think of time as a 4th dimension. Some mathematician came along and showed that his ideas imply it. In his early writings Einstein seemed to see time as specific to a specific event ( if I was understanding him correctly ).
