Jenna makes a good point too. Although, while taking care of everyone is definitely too much to ask, taking care of one person who's always supporting you should be pretty high on the list. Of course, there are things higher - the whole "needs of the many" deal.

Even when Belle shows up, they're in the middle of something - dealing with all these new people. Do you really expect them to say, "Hey, we know you're all terrified and living in the woods, but this chick who doesn't like to socialize is trapped in a probably unbreakable curse in some realm that we have no way to get to, so we're going to ignore you for a few episodes until we figure out how to handle her! That okay with you?"

and they still care about her more than these strangers, as proven by the fact that Emma encourages the strangers to stay at Granny's while encouraging Belle to find a more comfortable bed.
