does sound kinda trashed LOL but found this on the definition or dispose under care
Be in charge of, act on, or dispose of
- manage, deal, handle...
which was from this
Deal with or settle
"He disposed of these cases quickly"
Derived forms: disposing of, disposes of

There's an adjective form, "well-disposed," not used much anymore at all, which means, I always thought, nicely behaved or such. This might be an older person or someone living way up in the hills. . . .
Anyway, it's always a compliment, however it's mangled by someone.

It refers to your disposition - archaic definition is that it means jolly, mirthful- as Martha would say, "It's a good thing".

I suspect that they may have meant that you were of a kind (or gentle) disposition i.e. easy to deal with. That kind of english speech is normally only in use on the Indian subcontinent and some Commonwealth countries.
