Coding capability is not everything, the asperger programmer probably has serious problems in social skills, social life. Let people be. If you're neurotypical aim for management, earn more code less.
You can have big social skills issues and a really good social life. Aspergers i know have trouble lying, and they're a blast to be around, especially if you do something stupid/bad, and ask them what they think about it. Setting them up for a date can lead to hilarious situations (ask them if they're okay first), but they can find people who appreciate their bluntness (which is still hilarious). And above all that, the honesty is really refreshing.
I think your social life doesn't depends on your social skills, but on who you met and how functional is your family.
