Social networking has changed the nature of relationships by altering how they are formed, experienced, and ended. It has shifted dating from an unknown process to one based on "Facebook stalking" potential partners. Maintaining online profiles and connections with exes can delay emotional recovery from breakups. Relationships are now shaped for their online audience rather than just between partners. This new mode of social interaction through technology has intrinsically changed relationships.
