Judaism is a communal religion. Many prayers require a quorum and learning is best when the Socratic method of people engaging is followed. Meals, services, life-cycle events all rely on community. In fact, when someone is mourning for a family member's death, there is a period of time when people go and visit, specifically because the mourner has to remember that he is not alone.

I suggest that you discuss your personal dissatisfaction with your life with a trained counselor so that you are more fully aware of the causes of your unhappiness. Until root causes are defined and explored, solutions are either unattainable or not sustainable.
I do not recommend converting to Judaism as a cure for your boredom.
You may want to discuss your problems with a member of the clergy, many of whom can provide excellent counsel.
if a person does not believe in God, then converting to Judaism may not be the path for them. Belief in God is central to Judaism.
