          </ion-avatar>
          <h3>My Partner</h3>
        </ion-item>

You forgot to add the menu toggle button in your page header like this:

<ion-header>
  <ion-navbar>
    <!-- Add this button in the pages you want to show the menu button -->
    <button ion-button menuToggle>
      <ion-icon name="menu"></ion-icon>
    </button>

    <ion-title>
      About
    </ion-title>
  </ion-navbar>
</ion-header>

This way when the pane is shown it'll not show the menu button, but when in smaller screens and the pane is hidden, the button is shown.
