That's different though. You used them on a semi-daily basis. I'm talking about if you just randomly decide to learn a language that you can't possibly use on a regular basis. I'd love to learn Italian and German but I'm never going to use them unless I visited the country or met people online who spoke that language. There's no possible way I'd be able to become fluent learning both at the same time.
ETA: On another note (because I don't want to make another post) I can bet you the majority of the people here who are saying they can speak 3+ languages are not fluent but words and phrases here and there. Being able to say "thank you", "good morning", "hello", "cute" and such does not mean you could count that as a language you speak.
