Why does my friend project onto me?

Anonymous
My friend makes subtle comments that put me down about various things and always throws shade at me indirectly, yet she turned around and said I was “a shady person.” I asked her for an example of me doing that and she couldn’t give one. She one ups me a lot and is now calling me a one upper. Why does she accuse me of doing things she does?
