Hymens are different: Everyone's hymen is different, and they can change during your young adult life, without sex, just from tampons, exercises, etc. so it's difficult to say what "normal" is. Once a hymen is torn, it doesn't usually heal back the way it was, it heals in the "open" or relaxed position. Not everyone tears their hymen with sex. Sometimes it just stretches. Sometimes childbirth is the first "tearing".
