My partner keeps uninviting me to things involving his friends and family. Should I continue the relationship?

Male/Female: age 29. So heres the deal...the relationship is NEW new (2 months). I absolutely do not need to meet his mom anytime soon. But... She happened to be visiting from out of town. And he asked me repeatedly if I would. I really like him, so of course I say yes even tho it makes me nervous so soon. She gets here and he says she's already asking about me. He reaffirms that she's excited to meet me. And he again asks if we can do dinner at the end of the weekend. The day comes and "she's not ready to meet you". Uhm. WHAT. The amount of anxiety that I went through for several weeks, preparing myself to meet her. And you're just now telling me she's not ready? Am I being unreasonable to be offended by that? Normally I would not have been offended to not meet her this early... But he built it up for weeks. So not only was my anxiety for nothing but now I also feel rejected. Am I being crazy??
He of course doesn't see the issue.
To add insult to injury...there have been multiple instances of him inviting me to places and then finding out his friends just want a boy's night so he rescinds my invite. I politely asked him to be more thoughtful and stop inviting me until he was sure I was welcome. The last time I finally got mad because he had me walk to the bar with him just to tell me the second we got there that it was time for me to go, after a phone call his friend. I guess his friend didn't want me there? But I flat out asked him in advance to clear it with his friend first. He, apparently, didn't.. so we walk to the bar together and I'm immediately sent packing. He also didn't get the issue there because "I was cool with him having a boys night". Yes... Absolutely I was!! But then don't invite me ? again.. am I being crazy or controlling?
I know he isn't hiding me. He put me on social media and I did meet 2 friends. But I feel unwelcome in his life and I don't understand why he doesn't see the issue with rescinding invites so often. Should I cut my losses while it's still early and move on?
TL;DR should I leave my partner? He has made a habit of inviting me to do things with his friends or inviting me to meet his mom... And then uninviting me at the last minute because they apparently don't want me around/aren't ready to meet me.
