I moved to another city for work reason. 3 months ago, I went home for holiday and met this guy. 2 months ago, we met again in my current city when he was on a business trip and we started dating. So it's a distant relationship. 3 weeks ago, we spend almost a week together including a good trip to a beautiful island. He met my sister during that time. She was on a business trip to my current city too. And they got along quite well. We had a fun time together.
My sister and my friends back in my hometown said that he's a good guy.
This weekend I'm going to my hometown for a public holiday and will stay there 4 days, in which my bf and I plan to see each other for 1 and a half day, because he'll be on a trip. However, during that 1 and a half day, my family organizes a lunch that I'm required to attend.
I would like to ask for your advice: Should I invite him to that lunch?
There's no problem from my family side's because my parents, my sisters, my brothers in law are very friendly, funny, and open-minded. But the thing is: He and I only date for 2 months, and most of the time, we're distant. He may be freaked out and think that I'm moving too fast and too serious and bla bla... While I only think that: We haven't got much time together. During 1 and a halft day spending together, if I abandon him for this lunch, even just 2 hours, it'll be awkward. If that's 2 normal hours, not meal time, it'll be ok. But that's lunch time. If I was him, I wouldn't be happy being abondoned and eating alone while my bf goes home for a family lunch.
What should I do? Please, any advice?

I guess the only caveat may be where your relationship is at or going and if meeting your folks is a big deal for you both, or it is just casual.
But talk to him, always.
i say trust your instincts. best of luck.
