I guess it's safer to say yes rather than no. Even though there's no physical violence, there are some bits of emotional abuse. The two main characters (Ally and Jack) start to have pretty serious problems in their relationship at some point, mostly because of Jack's HEAVY drinking, which hurts Ally emotionally, and his jealousy. They're not fighting all the time, but he's shown obviously jealous of Ally in few scenes. And also there's one (and I think the only?) scene in the bathroom where they have a pretty intense argument (Jack calls Ally embarrassing and ugly and she shouts at him).

The main character is asleep when the love interest starts kissing her and this leads to them having sex (she wakes up, but she is very clearly asleep when it starts). It is not handled as an assault, and there is no comment about it. It is portrayed as completely allright even kinda romantic. This was very triggering for me, so yeah.

When Jack goes to support Ally at the Grammy’s, he turns up very drunk and when on stage with Ally, he wets himself in front of everybody. It’s quite an intense and upsetting scene as she’s trying to protect him and escort him off stage.

No fat jokes (I don’t know where else to put this) but in one scene Jack calls Ally ugly knowing it is one of her insecurities.

There are few actual and implied sex scenes. E.g. the first one only shows characters undressing and heavy breathing/kissing sounds, no actual act. All of these scenes are consensual and short, nudity is shown very briefly, nothing heavily explicit.
