Subjunctive Help!
Hi I'm having trouble with the subjunctive. I know that you use it in this clause: "es necesario..." So if I had something like this: "Tambien, es necesario que el trate a todos con respetos, tenga (or tiene un personalidad comica), .... would it be tenga or tiene? and if I were to continue the list and was putting verbs like tener or anythiing else in, would it be present or subjunctive?
p.s. Im writing a paragraph about what my perfect boyfriend would be like (project)

You are correct in continuing the list with subjunctive.
But, after the comma, I think you need another "que"...
"También es necesario que él trate a todos con respeto, que tenga una personalidad cómica, y que sea muy muy guapo."
I just found a cool thing for helping with subjunctive. Not what you are looking for but may help
