Yes. I can think of two specific instances when I did with two separate people, both friends. In both cases, I discovered that cutting them out of my life the first time was the right decision, and I should not have given them the opportunity to weasel their ways back into my good graces. While I wouldn't say this has gotten me to the point where I'd never give a second chance to anyone, I can say that if you've gotten to the point where you feel somebody is a destructive enough influence that you need them out of your life, chances are they haven't changed enough to deserve coming back again. A scalpel is kinder than a saw.
