Direction of an Offset Curve

So I have an offset curve of an intersection curve that represents the intersection between a set of faces and a datum plane with a specified origin and direction. I want the offset to go towards the center of the intersection curve, but when I change the values of the origin and direction of the datum plane, the offset direction switches. Can I solve this so that no matter what the offset direction goes "inwards"?
