i hear a lot of people around me telling
that it wasnt einstein inventing relativity,
but some other guys before him


And yet these other guys can't prove it for themselves?

There were at least two other people who were significanlty involved. One
was a mathematician named David Hilbert who also worked on General
Relativity. In fact he worked with Einstein during November 1915. The final
steps to the theory of general relativity were taken by Einstein and Hilbert
at almost the same time. They both discovered the same final form of the
gravitational field equations within days of each other must indicate that
their exchange of ideas was helpful.

The other his friend was his friend Marcel Grossman. I'm not sure how much
they worked together but I do know that they published a paper together
called "Outline of a Generalized Theory of Relativity and of a Theory of
Gravitation." The first part was called "Physical Part" and was written by
Einstein while the second part was called "Mathematical Part" and was
written by Grossman.

exactly what was einsteins contributon to relativity,


To hard to quantify but he contributed to most of it. Ask an historian that
question.

.. did he stole his tensors?


You can steal a tensor as much as you can steal the number 4.

what about his wife,

did he stole his tensors from his wife?

then he diden liked her anymore, becus he
discovered that she had darker skin color
than he had

then he did his cousin in stead of
