Some examples

A: "Shoot for the moon" is an expression that means to make high goals.

There is a famous quote that uses that expression.

"'Shoot for the moon. Even if you don't make it, you will land among the stars."

A: Shoot for the stars

A: This isn't a common expression, but here goes:
"Since we had nothing better to do, me and Fred decided to shoot the breeze 'til dinner."
"We were just sitting around shooting the breeze when we heard the news."
"Come over on Sunday. We'll have a beer and shoot the breeze."

A: They are similar.
The moon is closer than the stars.
We have a saying: Shoot for the stars, if you fail, you may still land on the moon.

It means, you should aim for a very difficult goal and, even if you don't accomplish that, you may still do better than you expected.

A: Do you mean “shoot a bow” if so, both have the same meaning

An arrow is shot from a bow

So you can shoot an arrow from the bow

Or

Shoot a bow, which releases an arrow

A: Shoot for the stars describes setting high expectations for yourself, setting goals, having big dreams.

Reach for the sky is a phrase that means "put your hands up and surrender" and usually involves the other person pointing a gun at you. it was used in the 19th century in the American West. There are many movies set in the American West where "gunslingers" and sheriff's use this phrase. it's also used by the toy sheriff doll, Woody, in the Toy Story movies.

A: I would say they both mean the same thing. If there is any difference, it's subtle. "shot me down" may indicate that she harshly rejected you. While "turned me down" sounds as though the rejection may not have been as harsh or rude. It's a simple matter of connotation.

A: I've never heard anyone use that first one. You could say "they shot out of here", but the second two mean the same thing.

A: no, it’s not rude at all. In fact “shoot” is actually a substitute for “shit”, which is vulgar. Both are also casual, but modern English speakers accept casual speech in most circumstances. The one major exception would be when doing business related activities. There you want to leave out such phrases, as they make you sound unprofessional.

A: your short sounds kind of like "shart" so your "or" in short needs to to be more pronounced. your shoot sounds perfect!
