Not technically, no. However, the protagonist's teenage daughter threatens to call the cops on a young man and falsely claim that he tried to rape her. She then laughs at his discomfort and says it was a joke, because she enjoys making him uncomfortable.

Yes, upon reflection. The protagonist refuses to go to a hospital (even after he learns he's dying from a heart condition), claiming that he can't afford healthcare. It's later revealed that he's saved all of his earnings for his estranged daughter. He was therefore denying himself lifesaving care in order to give his daughter a good life. His friend/off-the-clock caregiver is devastated by this reveal moments before his death.

( slight spoilers ! )
I don’t have specific time stamps but
near the mid beginning, Charlie ( Brendan Fraser ) is given a meatball sandwich by Liz and he starts to retch & choke. It can be triggering.
Second, near the end of the movie after Charlie has a fight with his wife, he binges and then V during it. It was triggering and somewhat graphic

Not in the sense that a bisexual character is the one cheating. Charlie's sexuality is never given a label, only that he did end up with a man although he was in a relationship with a woman prior. It's heavily implied that he was unhappy with the woman and that the only reason he stayed with her was because of their child, Ellie.
