When in ihraam, a man is not allowed to touch the kabah ghilaf, etc. due to the itr that is on it. In this case can one wear the ihraam and perform the tawaaf even if one is not performing an umrah?

Q: I met a boy and we both had feelings for one another. We both did not want to date as there is a lot of sin in it.

The only piece I have of him is a chain that he gave me, will it be sinful for me to wear it?
