Is there trouble in Mindy Kaling's romantic life because of her TV show?

Spoiler Alert: Is Danny Finally Going To Meet Mindy's Parents On 'The Mindy Project?'

On Thursday, Design & Trend reported that The Mindy Project's Mindy Lahiri may be ruining Mindy Kaling's love life.

Could the differences in her fictional Mindy and the real-life Mindy be getting in her way?

Mindy Kaling Opens Up About On-Screen Pregnancy In 'The Mindy Project'

"I am dating, but one of the challenges I have noticed is that I'm not very much like my character who is very wild, and I think that when I go on dates, there's this expectation that I'm going to have 11 martinis and pass out and spend the night really soon. And I think people get a little disappointed because my true self, I could never do that, have a one-night stand," Kaling said.

But not only is a one-night-stand a moral issue for Kaling, it would interfere with her nighttime routine!

"I have my medications that I have to take at night, I have to be at my house and, like, do my flossing ad then I have the pillow that when I'm reading, it's like very firm so I can do that, but then I throw it out for my medium, soft pillow. Like Goldie Locks -- everything has to be just right," she said.

In addittion to Lahiri messing with Kaling's life in those regards, she's apparently also feeling the ramifications from her fake pregnancy on The Mindy Project.

"For the storyline, it's been very good, but for me personally, it was probably one of the worst decisions," she said. Apparently, wearing the belly prop is fine, she explained, "but I eat like I'm pregnant when I'm not actually pregnant so it's been a disaster for my health!"

As for how Kaling is going to cast her tv-mother, she is putting a lot of thought into it.

"It's the kind of thing where I know if my mom were alive," Kaling said, "she would want only the most young and beautiful Bollywood actress to play her. [She'd be like,] 'I don't want that old crone to play me!'"
