It wasn't out of loneliness or boredom. It was out of a desire (a desire stemmed from love) to have others to share His great love and joy with.
He created us with free will. Ultimately, we choose whether we want to accept and be part of His love or not.
I think rationally what we are is not what God created us for. This can be rationally proven by the following permise:
"God creates potential to reach it's fullest potential".
And if you can realize that, you can realize that we failed to reach fullest potential. But that we need fullest potential people to guide us.
I believe Mohammad, Ali, Fatima, Hassan and Hussain and 9 Imams from offspring of Hussain in this universe, are fullest potential. They accelerated from the start till now with maximum way.
Prophets were guided to the straight path, and once reaching, all accelerate according to the speed they came to it.
The followers of Prophet and Ali, eventually, will be guided to the straight path. They will differ according to their acceleration and growth speed once reaching it, but otherwise, it's one and the same path.
It doesn't lack one glory or one beauty, but combines them all perfectly balanced.
It can be said just like a lottery ticket, no one buys that for and risks money, for the sake of winning anything less then the grand prize.
God created all of us for the sake of being his grand prize.
We forever have failed that, but eventually, we can be guided to the path of those who he favored from beginning till the end with his name.
May God forgive us, God must be frustrated, he keeps scratching tickets and tests us, but the results are almost all negative.
