Any thread can dry out. My mom taught me that if you pull on it and it breaks right away you shouldn't use it to sew anything. You can use it as gathering thread or donate it to a school for use in art class.
She said if you are going to take the time to make something use good thread!! She was right.

2- I have a lot of embroidery thread, I mean a lot of it, my question is: Does it ever get too weak or rotten to safely use on projects?
Thanks for any help I can get on this.
