What I would suggest to you is to use bake generate your models,
controllers, and views.
Bake will auto-suggest what associations to have by looking at your
table structure.
Then have a look at the code it produces and massage the associations/
data retrieval to your liking.
Other than that, just keep trying - it took me a while to fully
understand the relationships and how to retrieve/save associations,
and I did it by analysing the code "bake" created.
Unfortunately I don't know of any resources which go into depth with
associations (and comparing to complex real-world relationships and
not just Post<->Tags, etc)
