Let another fellow attorney weigh in on this, although I pretty much echo earlier advice. First, there is the legal side of things, and in the interests of your child you have no choice but to file asap. I'd do that at the same time as telling her that I am seeking custody...if you stress the importance of your desire that she needs to continue to be involved as a parent, there's a good chance that she'll go along with that (she has no responibility, and little guilt, if you present it correctly...she obviously doesn't want the responsibilty of primary custody). Part two is for you to get counselling, to get her behind you, and to begin looking for someone who is a match. You and she are obviously in way different places...that's the reality of it, and wishful thinking won't change it. Good luck.
