If you want to avoid this, you can join a faction by speaking to one of the faction representatives in whatever settlement you are in or during the quest that forces you to do it. 

To level up, all you need to do is farm quests, slay mobs, and gather tons of resources - it's going to take a bit, but this is the best way.

That being said, once you reached a good level and joined a strong faction, you will be ready for all matters of PVP fun, and can even accept missions from faction representatives in the game.
