Dump him.
Think about it. He wasn't willing to take time off work to attend a family wedding with you, but he'll take half-days and fly off wherever for concerts. Your parents haven't even met him after two years? I met DH's parents after we'd been dating for less than a month. He's playing with you like a cat plays with a mouse before killing it. What happens when you're engaged and he wants a wedding in his hometown and you want it in yours? What happens when you're married and he wants a baby and you don't? Think big picture here. If you were married or even engaged, I'd say "get thee to therapy", but you and he are not committed for the long term - so: Walk away now.

i don't think its harsh! I think it is your opinion on it and I respect it and am grateful that you were willing to help out. I don't know if I didn't clarify but we have BOTH met eachothers parents--we were "casually dating" (i wasn't really into the whole boyfriend thing in high school) about a year before we actually got together---I met his mom before we even got together and we met eachothers familys about a month after we were "official". The part of my family that i found it important for him to meet was my extended family--its my cousins wedding.
