My native language is Russian. I had to learn English as a child because we immigrated to the States. I personally do not want to learn any more languages because I feel it would be a waste of time. I came to America at the age of 9, and though I was surrounded by native speakers I would say I fully adapted to the language some time in high school and mastered it in college. I think trying to master a language takes years and years and years, and I am not comfortable using languages where I have to revert to my primary language to say half the things, or cannot understand complex ideas.
