If you try portrait shots now with your "kit" lens do you end up using the 50-55mm end most of the time and find that suits your needs? If so then the 50mm 1.8 would meet your needs admirably, if not what is your inclination of what you need? Wider? Longer? The answer to that should guide you to what you need. My guess is that in the conditions you talk about the 50mm 1.8 is the one to go for, it feels rather light weight but is very sharp and has the f1.8 for narrow DOF when needed.
