'body building'

Are you able to do static cardio in general? (treadmill, static bicycle, escalator, etc)

I'm not, and I've tried to analyze the exact reasons why. Static cardio is incredibly boring, but strenuous enough so that I can't really thing about anything else but the fact I'm running or pedaling in the exact same spot, even if I bring a book I can't concentrate on it enough for it to entertain me. It's just every single minute getting tired oh so slowly, totally aware of it. At least I can sightsee when I do the actual walking in the outside.

But even outside, can you walk for the sake of walking? I walk 50 minutes every weekday, but that's because there are 25 minutes from my university to where I live. Otherwise I wouldn't.

I'm not attracted to it at all.

I am fine with the surfer body type, or if you happen to be into a particular sport, that presents no problem for me.
But someone who simply considers exercise or food as a simple calories in / calories out mathimatical equation (especially for superficial reasons) is someone I have no interest in dating.

Life is for living.
If something interferes with your ability to live and to enjoy life to the fullest extent then something is wrong.
Whether that's through body building, eating disorders (of any kind), no interest in an activity of some kind that is physical (or forcing yourself to do one you don;t enjoy), or anything else to the extent that it impacts on your life too much to enjoy it properly.

Even while dancing I never turned down a great meal or dessert for reasons of weight or superficial reasons.

Neither food nor physical activity is a simple mathimatical calculation, and it shouldn't be treated as such - but nor should one forget that food is fuel also and physical activity keeps us healthy - to ignore either is to ignore an essential element of life and being human.
