Why are there spots on my body?

I’ve recently checked that I have a small amount of dark spots on my inner buttheeks & they’ve been there for a while, I’ve started to feel very insecure ever since & I dont know if my boyfriend has noticed but hasn’t said anything to not hurt my feelings, any suggestions or ideas?

If you have had them for a while, it may just be a part of the pigmentation of your skin- medically, it's probably not anything to worry about.  If it's the cosmetics you are concerned about, your best option is to go to a doctor to get more details on what the spots are caused by and get suggestions from them directly.  All people do have spots here and there that are shaded a bit different or something similar- it's part of what makes us unique and that's a good thing!  I'm guessing your boyfriend really doesn't care that they are there, or may even appreciate the spots as making you unique and that's why he hasn't said anything.

Ohh okay, I feel relieved knowing this, thank you so much I really appreciate your response :) because I was really worried
You are very welcome- and just to keep it in mind- if you see any changes in the spots or they become itchy or painful- do get them checked by a doctor.  
Oh no I haven’t, thank God, I was just curious on why they were there, they never bothered me tho, no itches or pain, thank you so much once again
