Okay so i got one table with people. One table with items that are given away and one with items people want.
People:
Person_ID, Name
Giveaways:
Person_ID, Item_ID
Wishlist:
Person_ID, Item_ID
So i want a query that returns exchange suggestions for a certain user.
So if i want exchange suggestions for person A it should return a list of people that are giving away an item that person A wants, and want an item that person A is giving away. The result should include: Person A's item, name of person too make exchange with as well as id and item_ID.
@SérgioMichels' answer should be correct. But it doesn't get the seller's name, and it uses syntax that should (in my opinion) be avoided.
So, here is an alternative...
SELECT
buyer.name AS buyer,
buyerWants.name AS buyer_wants, (assuming the items have names),
buyerHas.name AS buyer_has,
seller.name AS seller,
sellerWants.name AS seller_wants,
sellerHas.name AS seller_has
FROM
People AS buyer
INNER JOIN
Wishlist AS buyerWants
ON buyerWants.person_id = buyer.person_id
INNER JOIN
Giveaways AS sellerHas
ON sellerHas.item_id = buyerwish.item_id
INNER JOIN
People AS seller
ON seller.person_id = sellerHas.seller_id
INNER JOIN
WishList AS sellerWants
ON sellerWants.person_id = seller.person_id
INNER JOIN
GiveAways AS buyerHas
ON buyerHas.item_id = sellerWants.item_id
AND buyerHas.person_id = buyer.person_id
WHERE
buyer.person_id = ?
