I'm looking forward to being married and starting a family, but there's one small problem. He recently moved out of state and we don't get to see each other very often, and when we do we only get to spend a short amount of time together. Occasionally he stays at my house for a week, but I still have to go to school and we don't get to go out and do anything. He also doesn't have a license and has no job. He keeps promising me that hes going to get his GED, but he never does. He is doing nothing with his life. I told him he has until the end of my senior year to get his life together. I never thought of leaving him but he drives me crazy with the fact that he wont get his life straight. There is also another guy in my life that I have really strong feelings for. He is in school with me and he has great aspirations for his life. I know he likes me too and we have become really close friends throught the year. Im afraid if things dont workout between my current bf and I, that it will be too late for this new guy. What do I do!?

Simple. Dump your non motivated boyfriend. Why give him 10 more months??
He's not going to get his life together, because he doesn't care to. You giving him this ultimatum isn't going to light a fire under his arse to get a job or GED.
If you wait 10 more months you're going to be highly disappointed. You'll still have a loser boyfriend with no GED and job..then you'll miss out on the other guy. Opportunities like that guy have a shelf life, and it's a hell of a lot shorter than 10 months.
