Frankly, you should have thought of this before you asked her to leave (I assume that's what you meant by "ask her out", that usually refers to dating).
Now that she has moved out, I don't think you stand much of a chance of getting full custody. But you should get visitation rights and that isn't contingent on child support.
I suggest you consult a family law attorney as to what you can and can't do.

That's why you need to act immediately. Maybe you can convince a judge that the mother can't provide for him. Or maybe the judge just orders you to pay support. But, if you don't act immediately she may move. You have to start getting visitation ordered by the court. Once its ordered, ask that his passport be surrendered so she can't flee.

Consult with an attorney as soon as possible. If she is unable to provide a stable environment for the child, you may have a good case. But without getting the law involved there is not much else you can do.
