RYANN, I Got Ghosted by Another Guy | Beaming with Pride

In the 34^th edition of Beaming with Pride (2026), we highlight “I Got Ghosted by Another Guy” performed by RYANN. 

Are you ready to beam with P-R-I-D-E? Beaming with Pride highlights songs by LGBTQ musicians and allies, offering background, analysis, and discussion of the decadent bops served up. All genres are welcome, and both classics and new songs are recognized. So, without further ado, in the 34^th edition of Beaming with Pride (2026), we highlight “I Got Ghosted by Another Guy” performed by RYANN.

What a bummer, RYANN (Ryan Adriaens). Sadly, ghosting is prevalent in dating, and it sucks BADLY. Arguably worse in the gay community, it can take an extreme mental toll on a group that already faces a plethora of unfair hurdles.  The Queer Netherlands pop singer/songwriter articulates the shitty situation superbly on his single “I Got Ghosted by Another Guy”, which he wrote and produced.

Although it’s not ideal, “I Got Ghosted by Another Guy” shines for many reasons.  The musical accompaniment is creative, ear-catching, and vibrant.  RYANN shares a variety of captivating sounds, ideas, and contrasts.  As a vocalist, he sings expressively, sharing the unfortunate happening and how it affected him.  In the first verse, excerpted earlier, he continues, “He didn’t tell me why he left / Was it something I said? / You know, it’s fucking rude /To leave someone wondering about themselves.” He is 100% correct.  This fella makes our handsome Dutch musician question the mistakes he made: “Is there something wrong with me / Am I too kind? / Am I too straight? / Am I too gay for you?” Expectedly, he is upset, dropping a few f-bombs, including the potent “Fuck you, fuck your friends / And everything you do.” Woo! By the end, RYANN makes the assertion that we all hoped he would: “It’s your loss, not mine.” We should embrace those wise words when being ghosted. Crying over spilt milk, or a person who didn’t think enough of you to give you a reason why they are breaking things off, is a waste of time and energy.  And maybe, just maybe, you, the person being ghosted, lucked out.  Once more, RYANN serves the gays another surefire bop with “I Got Ghosted by Another Guy”.
