A computer-implemented method of automatically managing relationships between a plurality of users within an electronic social network. The method includes monitoring interactions between the plurality of users in relationships within the electronic social network over time, and obtaining interaction information associated with the monitored interactions, and automatically updating and managing access privileges of users based on the obtained interaction information, to access profile information of respective users. The method ensures automated, adequate and dynamically changing representation of relationships in an ESN system, thereby greatly increasing the value of the ESN system to the user and ways to pro-actively maintain and improve existing relationships or prevent them from decaying.
