"I have such a rich fantasy life, I can't help it. I do make up a lot of romantic stories in my head." — Mindy Kaling

Personally, I, Mindy Kaling want to spend like 80 percent of my life hanging out with women.

I would love to be married. But it's not a necessity like the way that I feel I need and want to have children. It would be wonderful to have a husband, and I would feel blessed to do it. But I would feel sad for the rest of my life if I had no kids.

I had these kind of unrealistic expectations that were fueled by romantic comedies, and it has both helped me and hurt me in many ways. It helped me because, in general, they've made me hopeful. I just figure things will eventually work out for me. But nobody is like any Tom Hanks character. Nobody is Hugh Grant. No one is Meg Ryan!

I regard romantic comedies as a subgenre of sci-fi, in which the world operates according to different rules than my regular human world.
