[Star Wars] I am a Force-sensitive individual. Can I pursue the Sith way of the Force but not be a total dick?

So the Jedi Order tried to recruit me and, though they were cool and all, I found that I don't agree with some of their ideals, mainly on their insistence on not "feeling". 

I am a passionate guy. I love to fight, I want to have fun and someday, I want to get married and have kids. The Jedi teachings are specifically against all this and my life will feel boring because of it. 

The Sith, however, have no rules against this. 

So that leaves me with a conundrum. I enjoy being a Force-using, lightsaber-wielding warrior but do not like to be shackled by Jedi Order rules. I want to further pursue my studies on the Force with the Sith but don't particularly enjoy conquering worlds, killing innocents, eliminating other Jedi and overall being a "bad guy" like the Sith are well known for. Would it be possible?

The Jedi and Sith are two specific religious orders with their own dogmatic view of the universe. Each believes that their order has the sole claim to universal truth, specifically the universal truth of the Force. This is a fallacy. 

The Force is a part of all life, and all life is part of the Force. In the Expanded Universe's Yuuzhan Vong storyline, the enigmatic former Jedi Vergere points this out to Jacen Solo on Coruscant. 

She shows him a local predator hunting for food and asks Jacen if it's part of the dark side, since it kills a harmless herbivore for its own gain. Jacen tries to hand-wave it away by saying that the predator acts the way it does because of its "nature", but eventually is forced to conclude that the Force isn't necessarily split between a "dark side" and a "light side". 

The teachings of the Potentium are most likely the closest approximation of what might be considered "universal truth". They teach that the Force has *no sides*, but rather is a neutral universal energy field that reflects the personal choices of the wielder. 

If you're a Sith who chooses to use the Force to choke out and throw lightning at people you don't like, it's not the dark side that grants you those abilities, it's you putting your own moral judgement on how you use the Force. 

If you take the Potentium's view of the Force, it's entirely possible for you to live your life the way you want as a Force wielder and not be a total dick. 

You just have to choose not to be a dick. 


**TL;DR- Jedi and Sith aren't the only two lifestyle options for a Force wielder. The Force is what you make of it.**
