Does "esencial que" need subjunctive?
Estoy escribiendo sobre don Quijote.
Yo quiero decir: It was essential that (don Quijote) have a lady who is in love with him. Is it: Era esencial que (don Quijote) tuviera una dama de quien enamorarse. o Era esencial que tenía una dama de quien enamorarse. ? Or if I am completely wrong please correct me. |

Bobjenkins is right. Only your first sentence is correct.
