Legal Question in Family Law in Massachusetts

If I’m going thru a divorce as the plaintiff. If I were to say, I withdraw my request for a divorce. Are the court orders currently in place go away too? Are we just back to being married and unhappy?

If the case is dismissed all temporary orders will disappear.
