While Erica Mena may be known to always be in the center of drama, the Bronx beauty is now doing what it takes to avoid it at all costs, as Mena has reportedly chosen to boycott the "Love & Hip-Hop: New York" reunion because of issues with other cast members.

"A lot of people cast this season were cast because of beef with her," a source close to Mena told Bossip. "Erica was pretty much sick of the deflecting and the projecting of off other people's negativity." Those other people could include her ex, Cyn Santana, former friend Chrissy and fellow Rich Dollaz ex, Jhonni Blaze, all of whom had problems with Mena throughout the latest season.

One reason for the mature move? Mena wants to make her future hubby, Shad "Bow Wow" Moss proud.

"She's about to be somebody's wife," the source told Bossip, "and she didn't want to put herself in the type of space where that could happen. She didn't want to put herself in a place where she has to act negative. She's in a different place now."

Mena may have skipped out on the reunion, but she reportedly shot her segment for the show separately with L&HH creator, Mona-Scott Young.
