She could just not stalk your transactions.
Monero enables the trade of sex slaves.
Public transactions helps prove private property right. If everyone knows you have 5 bitcoin for a house, then it cannot be disputed.
With no ledger, you could pay 5,000,000 Monero or whatever for a house, and the seller could simply say you didn’t, and there would be no grounds for dispute.

I actually think Monero has a ViewKey for transactions that could be used for such scenarios.
Bitcoin already has bad actors. I think this is a pretty low bar of argument.
I was thinking you where smarter, but I was wrong 🫤
They're called viewkeys.
Monero is optionally transparent. That's how you would prove you sent the payment.
Btw seeing 5 Bitcoin move from one address to another proves nothing by itself. There's nothing on the blockchain that says "this proves it was for a house" or "this address belongs to the person selling me the house". Seller could simply say you didn't either: "Sorry, you mustve sent it to someone elses address by mistake. Tough luck."
