Want to keep romance alive? Ask Jolie how

Los Angeles: Hollywood actress Angelina Jolie says she schedules date nights with partner Brad Pitt to keep the romance alive in their relationship.

The Salt star revealed that she carefully plans time away from their six children so they can be together as a couple - even if it only means sneaking off to another corner of their house to have dinner on their own, reports imdb.com.

"We actually schedule them (date nights). We just had one the other night and we went next door so we didn't have to worry about the paparazzi and the kids didn't know where we were."

"We have a house that has two sections so we go to the part that's normally the studio and the office and just have dinner as a couple."

"If you can hold it together - which is hard these days and a lot of people separate - then you have to work at it, and you have to make that time when you are not Mum and Dad once in a while," she said.
