THE last words missing Dovercourt teenager Natasha Coombs said to her boyfriend were that she loved him.
Joshua Brennan described his girlfriend as a stunning girl who was very caring.
"She would do anything for anybody - she was a little bit too caring, people would take advantage."
Josh, 18, who lives in Lawford, said they celebrated their year anniversary together a couple of months ago.
He described his year with Natasha as amazing.
They enjoyed trips abroad to Paris for Valentine's Day, Barcelona for his birthday and a trip to London for her birthday.
"She had no reason to run away. She had a new job that she loved. Natasha, in my mind is gorgeous. I cannot describe it any other way."
He said she is the most caring person he had ever met.
"Someone must have seen Natasha - they must have. She is far too pretty not to have been noticed by anybody."
Josh made a direct appeal to the teenager.
"If Natasha is watching this or is able to see this at all, my personal appeal is come home and get in contact with someone. Between your loving family and myself we can get through anything."
Wiping away tears in his eyes, Josh said: "I want us to live the life we had planned - get married, have a house and some children.
"Not only are you the best person in my life, you are my best friend and I miss you and I want you home."
