## 5.10. Multirelational (social) graphs

Figure 5.8. Graph

This example shows a multi-relational network between persons and things they like. A multi-relational graph is a graph with more than one kind of relationship between nodes.

Query.

    MATCH (me { name: 'Joe' })-[r1:FOLLOWS|:LOVES]->(other)-[r2]->(me)
    WHERE type(r1)=type(r2)
    RETURN other.name, type(r1)

The query returns people that `FOLLOWS` or `LOVES` `Joe` back.

Result

other.name | type(r1)
--- | ---
3 rows
`"Sara"` | `"FOLLOWS"`
`"Maria"` | `"FOLLOWS"`
`"Maria"` | `"LOVES"`
