Is autofocus important for portraiture?

I currently have a Nikon D5000, and I'm mostly using the Nikon AF-S Nikkor 50mm f/1.8D. The problem is - I cannot autofocus with the f/1.8D as my camera is only a simple SLR. I can only autofocus with the f/1.8G.

So my question is - if I were to begin doing photoshoots, would the f/1.8G be necessary? I do find it quite hard having to continually manual focus - especially when I'm using 1.8…

Hmm. Anyway. I'm tight on money. Should I squeeze in, and buy the f/1.8G? (I bought the f/1.8D for $125, the G will cost me $250).
