Claire knew her relationship with Alex probably looked weird to outsiders. They lived together and were raising a child that neither of them were related to. Since Ethan actually looked quite a bit like her, they probably seemed like a real family.
That was impossible though. As far off as dating might be for her because of her rather bizarre situation, she did want to get married someday. She didn't want to spend her life alone. She wanted a husband and biological children so she had the chance to see them grow.
Sometimes she wondered if any man could be okay with her raising a child that wasn't even her own. Especially since she was still so young. That was without factoring in Alex acting as her co-parent.
He would likely run into the same problem if he ever became interested in women. Or men. She had no idea what his sexuality might turn out to be because right now he didn't have one.
