Say you live forever, in an empty building with white walls. The longer you sat there the more absent minded you would become about time. You wouldn't have a clue what day or month or year it is.
Does this make time to not be relative?

time will still be relative.even if u do not know the time it won't change the properties of time. for example consider that one wall is longer than the other. even if you cannot measure th length of the two walls still the longer wall will be relatively longer than the other. the actual thing that is happening will not change according to u.

Yeah time's relative, but not in the concept you say. The concept of relativity of time's related to the difference between motion of different frames of reference. A good alteration would be a person travelling and a person at rest to a frame of reference. The speed at which time moves for these two person would be different by a factor, 1/(1-v^2/c^2)^(1/2). The time for person in moving frame of reference,
t'=t/(1-v^2/c^2)^(1/2).
t'=t/(1-v^2/c^2)^(1/2).

Yes, time is relative. It is variable.
