Projection is the abstract dynamic. The tells are the actual behaviors that I’m sure others have insight on.

I think liking yourself is highly correlated with extraversion. Introversion means the conscious mind spends more of its attentional resources balancing itself and has less left over for the environment. Having to think about yourself a lot turns your self into a chore.

A common one is applying identity causes to situational behavior. “I’m such a bitch” instead of “I am in a bad mood”. It’s a signal of haplessness over ones feelings.

We need others to feel what we are feeling. ie, misery loves company. If I don’t like myself, then I need others to not like themselves either. So I give them reasons to not like themselves. Causal path is ‘need to belong’. We feel we belong when we think someone feels like us.

I would nominate anxious behaviors, like fidgeting or chewing on pencils. This is high sensitivity, low specificity.
