Add a new model named Relationship. It should have a ForeignKeyField, related to User. The field should be named from_user with a related_name of "relationships".

You aren't too far from a solution here. Good work!
If you take the "Relationship" model and separate it from the "User" model, you will pass the first two parts of the Challenge.
There are two other parts of the Challenge afterward, but this will get you going.
best, Jeff

10,978 Pointsit keeps saying user not defined do you mind sending the full code

Treehouse Moderator 28,720 PointsThis is a really good challenge and takes a bit of effort to get all the parts correct. Especially the last part the syntax is slightly tricky because of a Python tuple requirement of a trailing comma for a one-element tuple.
Charles Leifer's documentation on PeeWee is admirable. I had the pleasure of meeting Charles at a conference a number of years ago-- very intelligent, very humble fellow. I am glad Kenneth Love selected teaching PeeWee over SQLAlchemy, it's flexible and simpler to learn. But when you get out there in the world of developers, you should be aware that SQLAlchemy has a larger community.

Spoiler alert on code below--
# Challenge part 1 code below
class Relationship(Model):
from_user = ForeignKeyField(User, related_name='relationships')
# Challenge part 2 adds the code below
to_user = ForeignKeyField(User, related_name='related_to')
# Challenge part 3 adds the code below
created_at = DateTimeField(default=datetime.datetime.now)
# Challenge part 4 adds the code below
class Meta:
database = DATABASE
# the hardest part is the indexes as this is slightly less common
# reference documentation:
# http://docs.peewee-orm.com/en/latest/peewee/models.html#indexes-and-constraints
indexes = (
(('from_user','to_user'), True),
)
