What's exactly your definition of timeline? You seem to entertain the idea everybody know what a timeline is. Perhaps your confusion arises from your definition of timeline. So, what do you think a timeline is and why do you think there are different timelines?

IBut I do not understand why meeting with an alien creature in a forest will automatically mean you've traveled to the past or the future. Or why seeing your long ago dead grandma in the garden means there is a clash of timelines. Why not accepting that what happens is that both you and the alien has met in a new timeline which is common to both of you for the time your encounter lasts?

Timelines are fully protected from each other by the so-called chronological censorship. You cannot cross from one timeline to another one. But you can certainly create a new timeline shared with those you wish to meet with. Call it the ghostly timeline. Or the twilight zone. It is a safe place, sometimes edenic, sometimes hellish. That's dreamland, after all.

I'm sure the moment you stop looking for them, you'll see them

But what is a "timeline" and do "timelines" exist? Or a metaphore?
Here in Australia we have the deceased ancestral indiginous folk walking the same paths in the landscape as they did in the past. A similiar thing happens in the Brittish Isles according to the seers over there.
Spot on they do keep to their paths here too in UK like you guys in Aus We get em on the ley lines, Dutchies call em Dead Roads, Irish I can't remember maybe Fairy Paths or something Thing is NS268 the UFOs also use the same paths so is this a timeline backwards and also forwards?
I guess there are as many definitions of what a timeline is as people. The definition of timeline, according to physics, is that of word line, refined into the concept of light cone. Basically, you consider as your world line all events in space that are causally connected with you, where causally connected means the set of points which with you can exchange information.
However, physics is known to exclude life forms in its description of Nature. No room for humans or aliens. Only observers devoid of soul. And a cat, here and there, and some twins.
Those are the only life forms physics talk about, and life forms you barely can consider alive.
I did my best to explain it, though I feel my explanation is clearly poor.
One of the photographs is this: you by the beach. That's as far as physics has gone. It is not a short path, indeed.
Yes, I need to confess sometimes you extend your hand to fetch a photograph of someone watching you by the beach fetching a photograph of you... by the beach. And when you turn your back to see who took that photograph, nobody is there: you've reached the end of your world line.

Cathie is easy to read and follow. I ignored the math equations : )
i have heard about aliens tracking people with micro chips embedded under the skin etc. Typically these people are prior abduction victims/contactees.
Are there any stories of them loosing people.

But unless it enable aliens to slip on an Oculus and vicariously experience our lives (which maybe they do!!), then they also need data on the individual's cultural, social and economic details in order to fully understand the subject's existence. For surely unless such a comprehensive understanding is the objective then what's the point? All the other data would lack meaning.
This is a brilliant solution for studying otherworldly beings! To see what their eyes see and what they do all day. The social constructs and daily life. Maybe thoughts and emotions too, if they could be translated.
Maybe they don't even have to use a chip or similar measurement. We can already read out fields/positions remotely with a magnetic field, just like the helmet position in fighter jets. I can imagine that technology would at one day allow for reading out field properties from a distance.
Like shining a flashlight at something and see the photons bouncing back at us. Light is also determined as electromagnetic radiation. There are already cameras capturing the light field, just a matter of time this can be done remotely and make sense of the data coming back.
Complete crazy theory:
What if alleged abductee are one abducted to figure out their personal properties, with pysical feedback loop from the eyes, they could run analysis and calculate the key algorithm.
Like showing the color red, snapshot of the brains electromagnetic field and compare it to a physical readout coming from a sensor in the body. Then rinse and repeat until the computer churns out the same images than the human sees, while reading out the electromagnetic field.
A bit like having a RC toy in front of you and you give it inputs, watch what it does, and the feedback you get is what the computer would go through to make sense of it.
we are not a threat
