  Strange, if I just take the slurs part, all is well (adding a % before the 
bf2):

%------------------------------
\version"2.4.2"
\include"english.ly"
\relative c'' {
\set Staff.TimeSignature = ##f
\time 3/4
\key bf \major
  c4.\( ( ef8) d4~( | d8 b) c4.( g8) \) % bf2 r4 | af2 r4 | g4 \f r4 r4
}
%------------------------------


  I had a similar situation with a choir piece.
  The solution a reverted to then, was to make the phrasing slur go below
  (using _\( instead of \(). Not what what I really wanted, but I got rid
  of the collisions.

%------------------------------
\version"2.4.2"
\include"english.ly"
\relative c'' {
\set Staff.TimeSignature = ##f
\time 3/4
\key bf \major
  c4._\( ( ef8) d4~( | d8 b) c4.( g8) \) | bf2 r4 | af2 r4 | g4 \f r4 r4
}
%------------------------------

  The settings below might help you.

%------------------------------
\version"2.4.2"

\layout {
    raggedright = ##t
}

aa = \relative c'' {
 \time 3/4
 \key bes \major
 c4.\( ( es8) d4~( | d8 b) c4.( g8) \) | bes2 r4 | as2 r4 | g4 \f r4 r4
}

\score {
  <<
  \override Score.PhrasingSlur #'height-limit = #3.0
  \override Score.PhrasingSlur #'ratio = #5.0
  \override Score.PhrasingSlur #'extra-offset = #'(0 .  0.7)
  \new Staff { \aa }
  >>
}
