We had a disagreement and he pushed me without force and he went to jail but I’m not pressing charges. No marks were made and I couldn’t make to court to let them know I’m not worried about this because it never happens. I’m going through a lot of health issues and he’s always by my side to be their for me.

If you obtained a restraining order in family court, and you failed to appear for the hearing, the Court will just dismiss the action. If this is pending in criminal court, then you should contact the state attorney who is handling your case (or victim's advocate) and advise of your desire to drop the "no contact." They should be able to tell you what you need to do, if anything, to accomplish same.
Best of luck,
