I personally would consider it a very good thing as he's openly calling you his partner.

Good as in he's being respectful or good as in he considers you his partner?
two different things...two different answers...
it could be worse he could have called you "the old ball and chain"

I personally despise the expression, as if you are not a complete person, or your own person, when you're in a relationship. But I guess your question is what it means in terms of your relationship, in which case "other half" is his way of saying "serious girlfriend".

I will say though OP, the term is usually "better half" not "other half". It means nothing bad unless you don't like being referred to as one half of him.
