The Shift
The "Shift" is when a guy (sometimes a gal) goes from DFS to DFL. Sometimes it happens because he has been dating seriously and sees the long-term potential or possibly has experienced lovematism. Sometimes it happens because he is bored with superficial one-night-stands or FWB and wants to settle down with one woman.

John to his buddy on a Saturday night: "I'm done with sleeping around, I want to DFL and find a real girlfriend or maybe even my wife."
"I've never really been into dating for sport, I prefer a serious relationship so I'm all about DFL. It's much more fulfilling."
Plato says, "The beginning is the most important part of the work," and DFL is the most important decision in beginning to date.
