Hrmm...this isn't an easy one to answer..
.
There's just a whole lot of ambiguity to this that's possible. I feel ya on that question.
Can't speak for all ENTPs...just..I would say it's a clear indicator for sure if he's consistently serious about discussing the deeper, fundamental things of life with you. With a focus on the future. If his demeanor is serious (this typically takes significant effort as ENTPs aren't serious by default) he's probably interested in you.
Typically because of what you said about Ne..and it does seem casual, this is how we usually are. But because ENTPs are deeply loyal, he will want to also see if you could get serious in return. He might explore things like plans for the future to see if there's likeness. Again, it might seem like this is run-of-the-mill and what most would do but again, for an ENTP to do this takes consistent, directed focus and seriousness. I would think he'd be interested to find shared values. Or finding common things of the heart like feelings and attitudes on issues.
A thing that could be ENTP for sure..He might attempt to intuit whether or not someone would willingly or knowingly try to get under his skin as this could deeply hurt him (we're really quite vulnerable to those we give our loyalty to and love). Most probably don't understand us. We're complex.
