Tell him to check his web browser autofill entries and other records, or use Apple's iForgot service, or contact their Account Security team, or the unit's original owner to click here and submit an unlock request.

This makes absolutely no sense. Why did you "buy it to try to unlock it" - why didn't you just tell him to contact Apple...? 'Locked to owner' means exactly that - the phone is activation locked and can only be unlocked by the original purchaser. If you lost your iPhone (or it was stolen) would you want it to be easy for the finder/thief to unlock it and access your data...?
That is irrelevant. This isn't Apple support (just in case you thought it was) and Apple would tell you exactly what you're being told here: only the ORIGINAL purchaser/owner can deactivate an activation. lock. If you can't - and your 'friend' can't, the phone is a brick.
Within 15 minutes of having posted something, you can edit it. Beneath your post, click the down arrow next to "Helpful". If you're within the edit window, "Edit" will be an option. This will save you from having to create three different posts that are largely the same.
Ask the seller to remove the lock or give you a refund. It's an anti-theft measure.

I bought it to try to unlock it because he forgot his password to his Apple ID and the iPhone XR was the only one that was on the Apple ID so how do I unlock it
Well I don’t know all the info that they telling me to provide.
so is there any way that I can unlock the iPhone without the owner?
The iPhone was the only device on the Apple ID

No, there is not. The phone is useless to you.
