Hey everyone, about 4 days ago I hit glowing, and the very next day the old man visited me and gave me the crystal and so forth.. However, ever since that happened, I've seen no sign of the sith AND my quest journal has absolutely nothing in it, even if I click 'use' or anything... nothing happens at all. WouldI probably have to destroy the crystal and wait for him to come back and if so, does destroying it mean he definately will return? Thanks!

Although i haven't experienced this myself, I have read that if you are glowy and destroy the crystal, the old man will come back. Same thing with people who looted the databad from the Sith but can't read it (another bug). They destroy the datapad and the Sith attack again shortly.

before destroying stuff, take a bunch of shuttles to player cities, you'll probably get jumped while loading by the sith.

The Old Man
Once you are 'glowing' with the Force, you should receive a visit from the Old Man, typically within 72hrs. The Old Man has been reported in many locations, both inside and outside player cities. He spawns randomly, however, it does seem that there are various things that you can do to hurry the Old Man to you. They are:
Travel by shuttle to another location, and wait a few minutes
Walk approximately 1000m outside of any player or NPC city limit
Enter combat whilst 1000m outside of a player city
Log in and out
The best method is often a combination. Shuttle to a city, walk 1000m outside of the city, linger a few moments, log out, wait ten minutes, log in, walk back, shuttle to another city, repeat. Eventually the Old Man will visit you, and ask if you have ever considered the possibility that you are Force Sensitive. If you say yes, he will offer you a crystal to protect, which acts as a log on your journey to Jedi. Once your conversation with the Old Man is complete, he despawns, and you are ready for the next stage.
The Sith
The Sith come in two parts. The first is a random spawn that operates in much the same way as the old man. They will appear and attack within 72hrs, you can use the same techniques listed above for causing an faster spawn, such as shuttling to another city etc. When they appear, they are approx level 75- 80, and you should loot them. There is a fair chance that they will have a datapad to use containing information regarding their basecamp, and a WP to it is added to your datapad.
[NB: If you do not loot the datapad, more Sith will attack at a later time, so don't worry, further chances to loot camp location datapads]
Once you have the Sith Camp WP, travel there. The Sith Camp has 3-4 NPC's, again, very easily defeated, and once more, a datapad with the Dathomire Village location, and a single unit of some mineral. Keep the mineral, and use the datapad to obtain the location for the Dathomire Village.
With the new WP for the Village, travel there.

I had this same issue only yesterday.
However, I had just rebuilt my PC, so was standing in the middle of nowhere on Tatooine, re-doing all my hotkeys, when low and behold, two Sith Shadows appear.
There was no quest in my journal either. Also, click show completed quests and you will see the completed Old Man Force Sensitive quest.
It just takes time. With a little patience, they'll show up.

In my case, I wasn't attacked by the sith... I attacked them! I just happened to be tabbing through some enemies at a mission choosing my target, and accidentally cycled to a Sith Shadow Outlaw just standing there about 85m away.
Naturally, I abandoned my mission and took it to them! 
The point being, just because you aren't attacked, doesn't mean they aren't there... Watch your radar.
