Ethan Plath Admits He Needs To Work On His Dancing

Admittedly, Ethan Plath confesses to the group, “I only stepped on her foot one time.” She laughs and confirms, “Yeah.” However, Ethan’s buddy warns him he only gets one pass for stepping on a girl’s foot while dancing. Ethan questions, “Did you just make up that rule because I stepped on her foot once?” But Ethan knows his friend is trying to help him feel better even though he already stepped on a few toes on the dance floor.

Trying to build himself up, he says, “The worst she can say is ‘No.’ Which in that sense, it would suck.” Perhaps with a little liquid courage, Ethan bravely asked for Lily’s phone number.

Although it was difficult for Ethan, he says, “Dancing was an absolute success. I can’t imagine it going any better than it went tonight.”

  1. Good on you Ethan! You at least respected your marriage vows and waited till you were divorced to date! Girlfriend Olivia on the other hand was as loose as they get!
