It depends on the County the case was filed in. If it's in a small County the DA's may contact the complainant, and based on that conversation, decide not to pursue it. If it's in a bigger County, like Harris County, all that will likely accomplish is having the DA's office transfer the case to the division that handles cases where the complainant "recants." (i.e. says it didn't happen or there was a misunderstanding, etc.). Be careful with having the person talk to the DA's though. If it's not said a particular way, you'll lose the advantage you currently have, and the DA's will be able to use that witness against you, whether they want to help them convict you or not. You need a good attorney to help guide you both through this situation, to be sure the resolution is in your favor.

There are time limits for getting to a trial. Speedy trial laws can apply, and they vary for misdemeanors and felonies. Your attorney should file a motion if there is a delay which lets you languish in jail without a Court date. I hope that this was helpful.
