{

       $blocked = User::where('id', Auth::user()->id)->first();

        return $this->hasOne( BlockUser::class);
  }

BlockUser Model

use App\User;

class BlockUser extends Authenticatable
{

      public $timestamps = false;

      protected $fillable = [
        'user_username', 'block_username',
      ]; 

      public function user()
      {
        return $this->belongsTo( User::class, 'username' );
      }
}

Database table block_users

id   user_username   block_username

Clicking simply on link actually makes GET HTTP Request. You need to change fromRoute::post(...) to Route::get(...). If you still want to have post method, then make simple ajax call with post method on onclick event of the anchor tag.
