In this article, an innovative study is presented, based on the observation of unexpected shifts in lesbian and gay educators' accounts in Greece, between two time periods. Methodologically, the mixture of Constructivist Grounded Theory and Situational Analysis was employed to capture and analyze individual shifts alongside contextual shifts, as a psychosocial unit. Results tracked the transitions of this social group from dwelling in a form of margin to spaces of in-betweenness, by drawing on border studies, borderlands framework and Turner's concept of liminality. This work suggests an epistemological and methodological pathway toward psychosocially locating shifting sexualities, through robust situatedness and the use of symbolic spatialities. Ultimately, understanding contemporary sexualities requires attentiveness to complex ambiguities, hybridities and contradictions, positioning in-betweenness, borderlands, and liminality as key analytical frameworks
