writes: I have known my best friend/crush for years. About 4 months ago he broke up with his girlfriend of two years. I was going to let him get over her and then ask him out. I never got the chance. The next time I saw him he told me he had a new girlfriend. As he discribed her I got the impression she was somewhat like me but a girl. When I meet her and got to know her I found out that she and I have almost the same likes, hobbies, dislikes, personaly, and back stories. Our birthdays are even only five days apart! She is a female version of me! Since he likes her how possible is it that he would like me too? (we both know that the other is bi). Should I bring up these similarities when I talk to him?

Sounds like, to me, you need to sit down with your bff and tell him how you really feel about him. Sounds like you both might have to work things out e.g. maybe he helps you NOT crush on him so much... or maybe he dumps the rebound girl and you two get together. In any even you can't hold it against him if he chooses HER, or some other girl, over you... and you have to let him know that no matter whatever happens you'll still be there for him even if it's only unrequited love/friendship.

Maybe he's not so Bi after all. Let his relationship run its course. If he's your friend you should not be surprised that he would find similar traits in a girlfriend that he finds likeable in you. I don't know as I would comment on the similarities but if you want to I don't see any big deal.
