Am trying to get the basics down before moving forward with neo4j. Love the querying aspect but now trying to delete using neo4jclient and stuck.

Simple setup  

root-[:has\_user]->user 
and 
user-[:friends\_with]->friend`

For a user with the Id of 1 I would like to remove the specified from Id == 2. User 1 is no longer friends with User 2 :(

Anyway, using neo4jclient I first check to make sure that the users are friends in the first place with this:

```
if (client.Cypher.Start("root", client.RootNode)
    .Match("root-[:HAS_USER]->user-[:FRIEND]->friend")
    .Where((UserNode user, UserNode friend) => user.Id == 1 && friend.Id == id)
    .Return<Node<UserNode>>("user")
    .Results
    .Count() == 1)
{

```

now I'm trying to delete:

```
    client.Cypher.Start("root", client.RootNode)
        .Match("root-[:HAS_USER]->user-[r]->friend")
        .Where("user.Id = 1")
        .And()
        .Where("friend.Id = " + id)
        .And()
        .Where(string.Format("type(r) = 'FRIEND'"))                
        .Delete("r");
}

```

No errors, but the relationship is still there. Any ideas? 

**Update 11/12/2012**

Got it working. I first updated by Neo4J instance with the **stable 1.8**. I think something with the latest neo4jclient and neo4j server were not working together. I first got the user's node based on the id, then from that node tested if the node had a relationship, then was able to remove it. Code below:

```
        var currentUserNode = client.Cypher.Start("root", client.RootNode)
            .Match("root-[:HAS_USER]->user")
            .Where((UserNode user) => user.Id == 1)
            .Return<Node<UserNode>>("user")
            .Results.Single();

        if (currentUserNode.StartCypher("user")
                .Match("user-[r]->friend")
                .Where("friend.Id = " + id).And()
                .Where("type(r) = 'FRIEND'")
            .Return<Node<UserNode>>("user")
            .Results
            .Count() == 1)
        {

            currentUserNode.StartCypher("user")
                .Match("user-[r]->friend")
                .Where("friend.Id = " + id).And()
                .Where("type(r) = 'FRIEND'")
                .Delete("r").ExecuteWithoutResults();
        }

```
