This package gives Eloqent models the ability to manage their friendships. You can easily design a Facebook like Friend System.

    ...
];

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Hootlex\Friendships\FriendshipsServiceProvider" && php artisan migrate

use Hootlex\Friendships\Traits\Friendable;
class User extends Model

    use Friendable;
    ...
}

$user->befriend($recipient);
