You're asking for advice but then we give it and you're like "oh, well nah guys ill just do it the way I always used to do it".
You feel that it would be better kissing her after she becomes your girlfriend, you say.
You're 18, are you
seriously going be like "hey lets go on a date" and when you go on a date --> you have fun --> you ask her "hai lets go steady/be my girlfriend :3?"
Do you honestly believe that will work?
Even if you kiss, she's not your girlfriend yet, and you shouldnt ask her to be. Date her, as in, hang out with eachother, kiss, cuddle, make out, share stuff, have sex, etc. And
THEN when you've done this for a while (a few weeks/a month, whatever, just not on the 2nd date), you can tell her you want to be exclusive or that you want her to be your girlfriend.

Usually now a days when I ask a girl if she wants to go eat, she thinks of it as a friend thing and not a date. If i said do you want to go on a date, it would be awkward.
Thats because you dont set the correct frame, you have the wrong way of seeing things. You think "oh ill befriend her first then I will make my advances" that's just not how it works (most of the time).
GIRLS DON'T SEE YOU AS A POTENTIAL MATE, BUT AS A FRIEND BECAUSE THATS WHAT YOU MADE OF YOURSELF
Then of course it would be awkward if a good friend asks you on a date, because you thought he was just a friend with no interest in you, unlike the other 'friends' you have.
It's all about the frame you have and if you don't kino, or if you just listen to her stories about bad boyfriends and stuff going on in her life, you will be her therapist/guyfriend who she can ONLY talk to.
