When I look into the games you played it seems like you weren't losing to that opening. It looked more like you were blundering too much.
Actually I didn't play those games on chess.com. I played them on a physical set.
How to defend against this opening

I was expecting his Queen to be attacking. I'm not sure how the position you give (below) is putting pressure on f7. It just looks like normal development.

yes that's what I mean. Eventually he moves his knight to G5 and brings out his Queen. My question is basically, when he does this opening, can I just copy it and get away with it?

kinda
replace re8 with bg4 and this "attack" fails spectacularily
re8 weakens the f7 pawn. bg4 strengthens it as it pins the knight.
Yes, F7 is the most vulnerable square to black but you can also attack white’s F2 which is the same thing but with white instead

wow!! chess is amazing. Thank you so much! can't wait to see the look on his face lol
against the f7 attack there is a specific gambit I like to play :
There are lots of traps in this line and there is actually a defensive idea where after Nd4 if white tries d6 you actually have Ne6 to block the bishop and guard f7.
you can transpose into these lines or similar from a Bishops Opening or a Vienna Game: Anderssen defence with Bc5 transposed to Guioco Piano or as Hikaru would call it Gucci Piano

hmm there would still be a game of chess to be played
yes, all I was looking for was a way to survive the initial attack. In an open game I believe that I'm better than him.

IMHO I think you go wrong in your third move. Instead of moving your dark bishop to c5, try moving your knight to d4 and play it as the Blackburn Shilling Gambit. This tempts white to take the center pawn, which he perceives as free, with the intention of forking your queen and rook on his next move with his knight. But if white does that, black has a mate in three, on the 7th move. Blackburn Shilling Gambit is a short game, only 7 moves. If he doesn't take the bait, if he takes your knight instead of your pawn, then you are obligated to move your queen to f6, which he will answer with queen to f3, then trade queens with him whether he likes it or not. If he does not take the gambit, but you trade queens, you will still win, if you don't fumble, but it will be a longer game.

My point exactly
Hello, I'm a beginner and my friend has beaten me twice with the same tactic. He basically just overloads the middle and keeps attacking f7 (see diagram), which I now know to be the weakest square for black. I would like to know the answer to these 3 questions:
1. What's the name of the opening
2. How can I defend against this opening? I thought about about copying every single move but I don't think that will help defending f7
3. What's a good trap I can set for him knowing he does this every single time
For some reason everytime I add a diagram it doesn't show. But here are the FEN and PGN for the set up positions for white
FEN: rnbqkbnr/pppppppp/8/8/2B1PB2/2NP1N2/PPP2PPP/R2QR1K1 w kq - 0 1
PGN: [Event "?"] [Site "?"] [Date "????.??.??"] [Round "?"] [White "?"] [Black "?"] [Result "*"] [SetUp "1"] [FEN "rnbqkbnr/pppppppp/8/8/2B1PB2/2NP1N2/PPP2PPP/R2QR1K1 w kq - 0 1"] *
