Why would it ever be acceptable for a delivery person to call you "my love"? Thats so weird

It's super common in England and is a very "neutral" expression, not romantic or sleazy or anything like that. Essentially the same as saying "mate." I've joked that I say "my love" all the time but I'd feel weird referring to my wife as such because she isn't a stranger.
