The article studies the class of abelian groups G such that in every direct sum decomposition G = A ⊕ B, A is 5-projective. Such groups are called pds groups and they properly include the quasi-projective groups.The pds torsion groups are fully determined.The torsion-free case depends on a lemma that establishes freedom in the non-indecomposable case for several classes of groups. There is evidence suggesting freedom in the general reduced torsion-free case but this is not established and prompts a logical discussion. It is shown, for example, that pds torsion-free groups must be Whitehead if they are not indecomposable, but that there exists Whitehead groups that are not pds if there exist non-free Whitehead groups.The mixed case is characterized and examples are given.
