Question: When Buttercup confronts a masked Westley, she says that she loved more deeply than a killer like him ever dreamed.

Answer: Westley comes back from the sea, only to find that his one true love is engaged to another man. He feels her love for him wasn't true if she could even think of getting married again, at least so soon.
