The so-called "rambling" aloes do not grow straight up for long, inevitably going sideways unless firmly staked. This is completely normal though often inconvenient.

When in doubt with an indoor succulent (or an outside one that gets light from only one direction) that leans one direction, point it away from the light and the plant will eventually correct (if it's not rambling like your aloe). I like to rotate my indoor plants when I water them if there's no compelling reason to keep them pointed one way.

I hope this helps. Smiling
