It's been an interesting ride seeing Lulama scheme her way into Thulani's bed. Here are five tips that we learned from watching the mastermind herself. 

1. Befriend his girlfriend

When Lulama laid eyes on Thulani it was love at first sight, but when she learned that he was taken she set a game plan. She became besties with Anathi to gain some proximity and insight into her dream man. 

2. Fake a relationship

Lulama made sure she didn't seem like a threat by fabricating a false relationship. How could she possibly have ill intentions if she was in a lovely committed relationship? 

3. Plot a rescue

Lulama planned a rescue mission on Valentine's Day. This entailed being 'stood up' by a fake boyfriend,  needing a shoulder to cry on and someone to share a meal with. Even a forever cake to share with her crush. See the moment here: 

4. Seduce him

When it's time to let him know that you're into him, don't let the hint be subtle. Lulama is a true testament to this, finding ways and places to seduce Thulani like a pro. And yes, he couldn't resist. 

5. Trap him with a pregnancy test

The final one is strictly for the brave Lulamas of the world. She was set to trap him out for life after presenting him with a pregnancy test. But is she really pregnant? Watch the video of Thulani confronting here here:
