people in public, her former friends say. “Every time I was out with her she would either be making fun of someone or being mean to people,” said Alethea. “She actually told me one time, 'You need to stay fit because I don't like fat friends!'”
    John Hidalgo, another resident of the Hollywood Station apartments, says Farrah frequently spoke of “screwing people over” and recalls one time she decided to “get revenge” on a neighbor named Adam, who she briefly dated during the fourth season of Teen Mom . “After they broke up, she got a condom and filled it with mayonnaise and put it on his doorknob,” he says. “She was always doing weird things like that, to prove that she was better than people.”

    Farrah Abraham with Daniel Alvarez and his parents in 2011.
     
    MTV often overlooked Farrah's treatment of those around her, and, in many cases, was forced to smooth things over with members of the general public. Daniel remembers one visit to a grocery store when Farrah encountered a cashier who struggled with her English.
    “Farrah started yelling at her…telling her she shouldn't be a cashier and should be mopping the floor. I was so embarrassed that I started to walk out of the store. I couldn't believe some of the things she'd say to people,” he says.
    Still, many of Farrah's former friends admit that she could also be fun to hang out with. “In the beginning, we would have a lot of fun and just do normal couple things, like go to the beach, go out to eat or hang out by the pool. I was trying to show her that things aren't always bad, and not everyone is out to use her like she thought,” Daniel says. “She had a lot of good qualities too. She's very ambitious and driven. She's dedicated to making money, even if she has to step on someone to do it, she will. I went into the relationship not knowing anything about Farrah or her show. I met a person that I was attracted to both physically and emotionally, and was trying to give her a chance, just like I would anybody else.”
    Things quickly imploded for the couple during a mid-summer trip to Daniel's hometown of Austin, Texas, he says. MTV cameras were close behind as they explored the city, lunched with Daniel's family and hung out with his friends.
    “We had a really good time,” he remembers. “She met my dad and stepmom and a chunk of my friends at a big dinner. MTV was there and all my friends had to sign contracts and stuff. The dinner and the parent meeting were on film. After that, the camera crew left. We went downtown to some of the bars and she ended up drinking and getting a little out of control.”
    And that, Daniel says, is when he began to see Farrah in a different light: “I saw what most people have been seeing on TV for years - an unappreciative and self-centered individual.” When their story was edited together for the final season of Teen Mom , it appeared that Daniel broke off the relationship rather abruptly. Not so, he says. What viewers never saw was the way Daniel says Farrah began treating his friends at a Florida nightclub.
    “She was telling my friend to 'go get her another drink right now' and being really rude and demanding,” he says. “Afterwards, we went to my friend's house and Farrah was disrespectful to people I've known my entire life. Finally, I told her to get out of the house and had my friend Lauren take her back to the hotel. I told her to never talk to me again.”
    When news of the breakup trickled back to producers, they were eager to have Daniel come back and recreate the drama for the camera. “They tried to get me to go back to the hotel and meet up with her and fight it out on camera but I wasn't having it,” he says. “They even tried to stall me at the hotel so Farrah and the camera crew could come. I was standing there and saw Farrah coming around the corner and a camera crew running towards me, and just bailed. I got out of there quick.”
