Answer 1

You should check out this section of the documentation:

http://kohanaframework.org/guide/orm/relationships#hasmany

You'll need something like this within your user class

protected $_has_many = array(
    'friends' => array(
        'model' => 'user',
        'through' => 'friends',
        'far_key' => 'from',
        'foreign_key' => 'to',
    )
);

These options are used at this part in the source code.
