Yes, it sounds like she was bored.

Has she ever expressed interest in going back to school, getting a job, going on an adventure? If so, are you supportive?

Are the two of you stuck in a rut in your relationship? When you spend time together, are you always doing the same things? When you go on vacation, is it always to the same place?

I get the feeling you aren't taking the boredom seriously, or you feel that only she can solve the boredom issue.

I encourage you to be more proactive in spicing up your life together.
