It seems that you are using a bar cursor (the default is a
box cursor).  But, even in that case, the cursor is still
put on each character, i.e. within a column occupied by that
character.  The difficulty is that, as the bar cursor
occupies only one or two pixels of the leftmost area of that
column, you just "feel" like it is placed "between" two
characters.
