ActiveRecord::RecordNotFound in RelationshipsController#create

I wanted to create twitter like followers and following thing. in my view i have 

<% if current_user.following?(@otheruser) %>
   <%= render 'unfollow' %>
<% else %>
   <%= render 'follow' %>
<% end %>

in _follow.html.erb 

 <%= form_for (@otheruser), url: createfollower_path(@otheruser) ,:class=>"form-horizontal",method: :post do |f|  %>
      <%= f.hidden_field :user_id, :value => @otheruser.id %>
      <%= f.submit "Follow", class: "btn btn-primary" %>
 <% end %>

in controller create action 

def create
    user = User.find(params[:user_id])
    current_user.follow(user)
    redirect_to followuser_url
end

in user.rb 

has_many :followers, class_name: "Relationship" #-> users following you
has_many :following, class_name: "Relationship", foreign_key: :follower_id, foreign_key: :user_id   

  def follow(other_user)
    relationships.create(user_id: other_user.id)
  end

in relationship.rb

class Relationship < ActiveRecord::Base
    belongs_to :user
    belongs_to :follower, class_name: "User"
    validates :user, :follower, presence: true
    validates :user_id, uniqueness: { scope: :follower_id }
end

now when I am trying to submit the follow button it is showing error as "Couldn't find User with 'id'=" and parameters are 

{"utf8"=>"✓","authenticity_token"=>"681q5ft03+WRdqgHagh/gI1mV3uohwaEj1sF8zdTycUAN5yTiVMT/wGCV4tLPRVRRFRA+6mYSS1bXk2ormA/zw==",
 "user"=>{"user_id"=>"7"},
 "commit"=>"Follow",
 "format"=>"7"}

You need to rewrite your controller's create action.

def create
    user = User.find(params[:user][:user_id])
    current_user.follow(user)
    redirect_to followuser_url
 end

Should worked !!!
