In my opinion, the "I'm scared Belle" was just more manipulation on Rumple's side. But the fact remains that Rumple abused  Belle (and has been since ss4) and them getting back together was awful for Belle's character. And even if he "did whats right", which was only for his own interests, she should not have gone back to him. I'm mad because I want Belle to be happy,a nd she deserves to be happy. She cannot be happy with Rumple. I am still convinced somethign was changed at the last minute in the writers' room because 6A Rumbelle does not match up with 6B.

And yes Emma had every right to be angry. That's not what pissed me off. What pissed me off is she told Hook he had to trust her (and that speech was brilliant) but then did not trust him. And assumed that he left despite barely any evidence; he took a small bag and left his treasured possessions, including his ship and his brother's ring. That does not say "leaving you for good". While Hook was fighting tooth and nail to get back to her Emma was sitting saying "welp he's gone guess I need to move on" afer one day. Which made for a very unbalanced relationship. Which is not what I signed up for. Whatever happened to 'Hook, I will find you, I will always find you'? I'm annoyed at Snow and Rregina too, more than Emma,and I think Emma may have worked it out if they had left her alone like she wanted. That whole thing was bleh.

The other things he kept from her were not as bad as this one. He didn't tell her about blackmailing Rumple in season 4 because Rumple already threatened Emma and then blackmailed him into silence. Then the shears, let's be real here that wasn't major (yes he should have told her and I don't get why he didn't but in the grand scheme of things I don't get why him secretly keeping them was all that bad). This was different which was why Emma got mad.
