Yes, Autism has a big impact on a persons social life.
People who are Autistic have social and communication problems which means that making and maintaining friendships is very difficult, and often neurotypical people can dislike Autistic people because they don't mimic neurotypical body language or because Autistic people act differently to neurotypical people. Autistic people also often struggle to maintain social interaction, it requires a lot of extra effort for Autistic people to be around other people so they may not be able to cope with being around people for too long, especially in large groups or in busy places.
Autistic people can also commonly be unemployed, in the UK around 85% of Autistic adults are not in full-time employment or education, this limits Autistic people's ability to meet new people, maintain learned social skills, and means that Autistic people don't have the money to socialize. Autistic people are often very social and want to have friendships, but their problems and their situation can mean that they end-up becoming very isolated.
