It means a person is either engaged to be married or planning to marry someone. A long time ago, parents made the decision of who their son or daughter would marry and would make arrangements with the other family. Therefore, they were "spoken for".

"I'm spoken for" means you already have a girlfriend/boyfriend and are committed to them at the moment. So, it would not be wise to get involved with someone else.

I have always understood that it came from old jewish culture. A father would promise his daughter to marry someone, and her reply to suitors would be: "I am spoken for".
