Or perhaps they are about to exit a relationship and have not quite cut the cord yet.
Bottom line: It means that they are not 100% available. In my personal opinion, it is a situation you don't want to get into. The person who tells you that they are partially taken should decide what relationship to be in or not be in. It's kind of misleading and selfish because it usually is that they are holding out for someone they want more or they can't make up their mind, and who wants to date THAT person? Or, in a crazy-case scenario, they might have an open relationship where they can date all sorts of different people at the same time.... Again, who wants to date that person? I'd want to be the one and only for someone and have them the same for me, but that's my thing.

For instance, if a boy is only 'partially taken' by you, then he's only 'sort of' interested in you.
If it's about a 'thing', then partially taken would mean that only part of it has been taken...
