Why would you evolve the necessary organs to sexually reproduce with your self, with no one else around?
Often times sexual organs are multipurpose. It's likely a genetic mutation that allows for sexual reproduction, as with all structural advances. I might end up with a functioning probiscus near my gamete sack and if I end up bumping into my fellow eukaryotes, that's just how it goes.
