Well, initially one might be lead to believe that Haruhi 'chose' Kyon for the very simple fact that Kyon's the first guy who weathered her "go to hell!" aura long enough to routinely strike up a conversation with her and befriend her.

Spoiler:

The not so simple fact is that Kyon's attractiveness to Haruhi is greatly enhanced by the fact that she half-remembers him from "three years ago," as a time-traveling Kyon carrying an unconscious time-traveling moeblob happened upon loli-Haruhi. Kyon proceeded to contribute to the delinquency of a minor by carrying out helping loli-Haruhi carry out her act of vandalism on the grounds of her middle-school.

When asked of his name, Kyon tells Haruhi that his name is John Smith. Haruhi doesn't yet equate Kyon to John Smith. If she did, things could get . . . interesting . . .
