I think I'm in a "V" situation..

Where to begin..

My name is Chris and I live in TX. I've been married for 11 years to my wife Christine. We are in a very unique-style V, or at least that's what I think it is.

My friend David and I have been best buddies since before my wife and I met. He's always been a bit on the reclusive, nerdy side. He's dated some but never been able to settle down. He's rather selfish in his own ways, but also sensitive and introverted.

He moved less than a mile from us, and started hanging out regularly. My wife never really expressed much attraction to him, but she really enjoyed his company and we all became close as a unit. He had recently lost the girl he had been chasing to a much more dominant guy, so he was pretty down in the dumps. I told him it was alright to talk to Christine if he liked. Since then, they chat daily and quite a lot.

After a few months of their chatting went by we had an evening without the children at home. Well, long story short we wound up in a sexual situation where Christine had sex with David and I watched. I enjoyed it, but was concerned for a while that the act would create a rift between us. As time went by, we occasionally had sexual encounters with David and it grew very comfortable.

So here's where we are at now:
David basically hangs out with us 2-3 days a week. The kids take it as second nature, they like him and have no problem with his presence.

David and Christine have sex in my presence at least 3 times a month.

We take short trips together and just enjoy our friendship together and share Christine sexually.

We recently had a discussion with David to gauge how he felt about the situation. He's happy having his space, he doesn't want the complication of a monogamous relationship.

Christine and David have a mild chemistry, it's not palpable, and you probably wouldn't notice it if you were around us.\, but a deep profound friendship. They talk hours on end.

It benefits Christine and I because we have a deep mutual friend. We also really enjoy the sexual element. It adds a tremendous amount of spice.

Is this situation really a V? I think I read something about a primary-secondary V. I don't know. I'm just wanting to know if anyone has a similar arrangement.
 
Greetings Chris,
Welcome to our forum. Please feel free to lurk, browse, etc.

Sounds like a V to me. I'm in an MFM V so we have a couple of things in common right there. I guess you could think of David as a secondary partner but you don't have to, Christine can consider both of you guys to be primary partners in spite of only one of you being legally/lawfully married to her. It's up to you guys. You can decide what you're comfortable with.

Don't know if that answers your question; let me know if you have other questions. Glad to have you with us!

Sincerely,
Kevin T., "official greeter" :)

Hi there Chris,

And yes, that definitely sounds like a "V" to me as well, though I am in total agreement with nycindie about not being hung up on the labels. So far your grouping seems to be working out and as long as you all keep communication open and honest things will work out as they are meant to. Good luck!
