currently having this with a friend of 5 years in which both of us are absolutely mentally fucked up and neither of us can handle a misunderstanding

I don't think people get how debilitating rejection sensitivity can be.
You have a minor misunderstanding with someone, fix it amicably, then years later they say "Hi" in a slightly different tone and you think they still hate you and panic.

and i'm not even gonna get started on the time in my life where i had a whole community of 4 years torn away from me because the people i thought were my friends decided i was being abusive for *checks notes* wanting attention
if i seem like a jaded asshole sometimes, i absolutely am and it's entirely a defensive mechanism against being severely hurt constantly in my past by several people
i don't know how to fix it. i don't know how to be cute & soft again anymore. i want to so bad but they broke me
this is why i'll never trust again when someone says it's "ok to need attention". it absolutely isn't. you need to be self-sufficient and never need a single friend, you fucktwat
or at least that's what life has told me.
