Julieta is ashamed of being poor and is a bulimic. She constantly lies to her classmates about being wealthy and often brags about trips to Europe, expensive clothes etc. even though it is false. She will meet Carlos, a rich but second-rate physician. She will try to use him to pull herself out of her poverty, but eventually ends the relationship.
