Is there a reason why a lookup would not show up as an option in list of data after being made. I have one match for it and I am previewing as that user.

Your relation column is most likely set to Multiple. Arrays will not show up as an option for a single value component, even if it only contains a single value. Changing the relation to single will convert the lookup to a single value.
