No, adding fresh greens of different varieties won't cause romaine lettuce, or any lettuce, to spoil faster. That's assuming nothing added to the lettuce is on the verge of spoiling itself. (If you toss a rotting apple in a barrel of apples, the other apples will spoil faster due to the introduction of the rotting apple.)

However, the introduction of excess water from the added greens CAN accelerate the spoilage process. To minimize the excess moisture, you can roll up the greens in one or more paper towels, which will help keep the greens moist enough, but not too moist. Then place the rolled up greens and paper towels in a plastic bag, and place them in the vegetable bin in the refrigerator.

What does spinach look like?

Raw spinach is a green, like turnip greens or romaine lettuce. It has a broad but elongated leaf shape. Cooked spinach is dark green, dense and stringy, with long grassy strands. It is tasty both ways, although it is an acquired taste. When cooked, spinach is often salted (like cauliflower) because of its otherwise subtle flavor.
