AS, do you mean she didn't want to be married to you or just married in general? Did she ever remarry? Did she get into other relationships?
Good question but I don't really know the answer. She definitely didn't want to be married to me anymore but I am not sure if she meant just in general she didn't want to be married, or if just to me. She did not remarry, she did have some kind of R with an OM (during BD, S and D) that she claimed was just a friend but I don't know how far that went. They may very well have just been friends, I suspect it was more but don't know. She was trying online dating for a while too. She was fairly open about it after we got divorced, I never asked but she would talk about it sometimes. She hasn't mentioned anything like that in years though, and when she travels she goes with a female friend of hers so as far as I know she's not seeing anyone or dating.

I ask these questions because my wife has hinted that she just doesn't like the institution of marriage. I think she resents the expectations and responsibilities that come with it. I personally feel that once you have married and had three kids its too late to go back and incredibly selfish, but I think that is what she is struggling with.
After BD I read a lot about menopause because my XW was going through it at the time. Menopause doesn't affect all women the same, but apparently it's not uncommon for a woman going through it to feel like she's been a wife and mom forever and now she wants some "me" time. How old is your W? I see in your signature you've been together 27 years, that would definitely put her right in the middle of menopause age.
