I've been seeing this guy for 3 months, last month when I asked him where this was going he told me he's not seeing anyone else and wants this to be exclusive.
It's been a month since then. It was his birthday recently and he told me about a party he was doing but he didn't invite me to it. He also didn't invite me to his bday dinner.
What does this mean?

Okay, Okay... let me be devil's advocate here... because on the face of it this looks bad. And not know you personally or the guy in question or the nature of your relationship... or to what level you have progressed to... I will say this.
3 months is not that long honestly, and it would be a little soon to be introducing girl freinds to freinds and family. Because I have made this mistake, and when the relationship did not work out... then I had to answer the questions later about it. My family would from that point on always as how things are going, and honestly relationships are rock and full of ups and downs. So three months in not that long enough for me to want to introduce you to my freinds and family yet.
Now with that said, he should of discussed it with you so you did not feel left out or less than. I am sure he did not mean to make you feel that way on purpose, and honestly there is nothing wrong with you saying something about it to him.
But I would not press it too hard or make anything more out of it then absolutely necessary.
Do you think I should bring it up when I see him? I felt left out and hurt because he didn't even tell me about the dinner until on the day saying he was going.
I would save it until you see him in person. I would wish him happy birthday and say that you felt bummed that he did not invite you to his party. But at the same time, I would say I understand that we have not been dating that long, but next year, I really hope you include me in your birthday plans.
And honestly if you would have talked to me about it sooner, it would not have made you feel left out, and sure maybe that's silly, but you would have like to have known and had a chance to talk about it before hand.
Get him a belated birthday gift, some small but sweet.
Thank you, I guess I'll talk to him about it and see how it goes. I've already planned to take him somewhere next week for his birthday
You are dating exclusively. Have you revealed to each other your long term goals with dating? Is it now a sexual relationship? How often do you see each other? Spend night together?
Yup, we have talked about goals around a month in and we both said we don't want anything casual or just sexual. We are sleeping together though and see each other around 1 to 2 times a week. I have stayed over at his once.
It's possible that his exclusion of you is based on the feeling that it is too early to meet his family, who I would assume to be involved in his birthday celebration. Or maybe he is embarrassed about his family and is afraid they will scare you away. Whenever I introduced a girl to my family, as we were leaving, I leaned over to her and said - quietly - "I think I was adopted!"
The plans were with his friends not his family though
Why would he not want you to meet his friends? Can't you ask him why you aren't invited?
I was thinking of telling him that I felt left out
You should discuss this with him. You are early in your relationship and how you handle things now will develop into a pattern for you two, so get it started the right way and have an open discussion.
Ask him?
