According to the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke, which is part of the NIH (National Institutes of Health) of the USA and the NHS of Brittain, although the disorder is generally lifelong and chronic, it is not a degenerative condition. Individuals with TS have a normal life expectancy. People do not die from it.

Is it dangerous to be in a relationship with a person with Tourette's Syndrome?

No, not at all. Tourettes Syndrome is not dangerous at all. Someone with tourettes has occasional "tics" where their body jerks or they say something they don't mean to say. It is very difficult to control tourettes and scientists have only recently begun discovering how to help someone with tourettes other than using medication. Just because someone has a disability, it does not mean they are "dangerous" or "dangerous to be in a relationship with". They definitely should not be treated differently because they have a disability. Most people with disabilities are more sensitive or caring than those without disabilities. Whoever told you it is dangerous to be in a relationship with a tourettes sufferer has broken the law (Disability Discrimination).
