I'm scared to be my true self around this girl because I'm scared she might hate my personality. She's seen part of me but not all of me, how do I fix this?

Please I need help.

I asked this girl I like if we could go get something to eat and take it somewhere. But I'm having trouble on deciding if I should make something at home to bring (sandwiches, chocolate, etc) so we can lay out and talk and eat or just get fast food/restaurant food and do the same thing?

Will she miss the attention?

Has anyone gone through some personal experience in this kind of field?

And if so, how do you change friendships to something more?

Prepare for a partially long story.

I saw this amazingly attractive girl at the gym and I wanted to talk to her. But first I confronted her friends about her and what her personality was like then one day one of her friends asked me "Hey, why don't you add her on Snapchat?", so I did. A few days later she adds me back and we began talking via Snapchat. Conversations got deep, we began snap texting each other almost every day and I grew fond of her. Conversations got longer and by then she kind of liked me back. Next thing I knew I acquired her actual phone number and we began texting, having phone calls, Facetiming each other time to time. Of course then eventually we began seeing each other in person, hanging out for several hours (6-7 hours or until her parents actually had to come out and look for her). We held hands, cuddled and watched movies, etc. The connection was going very well, we always had something to talk about. Then one day out of no where she says "I don't think I want a relationship right now but I like you as a person. Plus most relationships start off as a friendship anyways". So its obvious she does not have the same feelings as I but how am I suppose to take this? I told her that I would be her friend but the pain of possibly seeing her with someone else will crush my heart. She is a very indecisive person so her answer may be different later in the future. Please help, I am lost.

This girl I like used to like me back but she says she doesn't want a relationship right now, she also said "most relationships start off as friendships anyhow". Although the pain of me not being with her will crush me I said I'll be her friend. What do I do? Just be her friend or keep pushing for something more?
