Destroy friendship method not working

When i click on the edit friendship link after i created the destroy method, i get a SyntaxError at /user_friendships/12/edit syntax error, unexpected keyword_do_block, expecting keyword_end

And its says its coming from here actionpack (3.2.13) lib/action_view/template.rb, line 297

Totally lost what it means! Any guidance would be appreciated.

expecting keyword_end means that a block is not closed with an "end"

So either an if statement doesn't have an end. Or most likely, in your user_friendship.rb model class your edit method is missing an end. Go check it:

def edit

    there is probably stuff in here that needs another end

end
