I'm not trying to convert you , but it is not nihilistic - The Buddha taught the Middle way between extinction and a permanent soul, and some of the main teachings - depending upon which school - relate to developing compassion. Selfishness is also negated with teachings on non-self, emptiness and compassion. Anyway - no worries.
