Does life make us nihilistic?

I know.
It seems like a really serious topic - and it actually is.
But first we should give some definition what Nihilism is all about.
I am sure most of you do know. Lets ask wiki what she thinks about it though! :)

Nihilism 

• Philosophical doctrine suggesting the negation of one or more putatively meaningfulaspects of life.
• Mostly nihilism is presented in the form of existential nihilism - argues that life is without objective meaning, purpose, or value.
• Moral nihilists - morality does not exist, any established moral values are abstractly contrived. 
• In some aspect, knowledge is not possible, or that reality does not actually exist.

The term is sometimes used in association with anomie to explain the general mood of despair at a perceived pointlessness of existence that one may develop upon realising there are no necessary norms, rules, or laws.

Now when we were all introduced lets move to the discussion.

(well, monologue more likely)

Alone does not mean lonely

First, lets have some definitions about the words themselves.

Alone - having no one else present, on one´s own
Lonely - sad because one has no friends or company, without companions, solitary
(from http://oxforddictionaries.com/)

All of us felt both of this emotions - but why sometimes Alone stands for Lonely?
Is it inevitable? Is it us who let this feelings to come on our surface?
Or is it a pressure from society that people need to be in groups?
Can you be alone and happy at the same time? Forever?

Women philosophers?

I am attending a group of philosophy in Liverpool.
It is lots of fun and you can meet tremendously interesting people. At least I had. :)
Topics vary from "Future of genetics and the moral impact on society" thru "Authority and its concept" to "Are we living in a multiverse?". Everyone can find something of their own concern. I love it all.
Another good point is that most of the people are not a real "philosophers".
They are usually clever in a different, usually scientific, way and discussions can get even more edgy.
Overall it is a brain training.

And for me it is a great pleasure because I love to listen to a proper English. xD
Of course it is a way to meet new people and possibly make some friends. Plus get smarter.

We have a meeting tomorrow and the topic is "Why there are so few of women philosophers?"
This article will show my views on this problem and I would love you to engage in comments if you have some thought and a minute to spare. :)

So, lets do it!

When to love is not an option

First of all, I would like to apologize for not writing anything for such a long period of time.
I was not really busy or anything, I was just lazy as usual.
That is why I have to say sorry and be ashamed of myself xD

Today, it will be mostly just about my problems and bla bla bla but I am sure that some of you will be able to relate their stories as well.
Almost everyone was in love - at least once in their lifetime.
Some of us all in love all the time - usually platonic.
There are always this beautiful platonic loves you are not even trying to work out just because you know they can not be real - for example "loving" an older japanese guy that is married?!
You can always look at them and admire, sometimes blush when you talk to them, but if you have something called conscience and brain you won´t try to kiss them :D (you do not want to make a fool of yourself after all, or do you?! )
But then there are times when it is too hard to prevent yourself from falling for someone.
And sometimes it can be too deep to get easily back on your feet.
