[Maul normally doesn't reveal too much about the backstories of others if he knows them well enough, as they're not his to tell, but he has no respect for Anakin so he doesn't feel any compunctions in telling Usagi what he knows.]
He seems to think that his wife is in some sort of danger and that the only way to prevent it is by using the Dark Side. Combine that with how Jedi are not supposed to form attachment, his thirst for power, and natural whiny immaturity, and it has lead to a toxic brew. He yearns towards both the Light and the Dark Sides but doesn't want to make the sacrifices that either requires. He just wants to take the easy way out. He.....what is that expression? Wants to have his cake and eat it too.
