Ramses, yes you can call me David

I guess I didn't explain myself. Near-native fluency is certainly possible, there are thousands, if not millions if near-native speakers of a foreign languages. But native-like fluency (indistinguishable from native speakers in all contexts and under emotional stress) is extremely difficult, if not impossible. Note that there is a distinction between near-native and native-like.
